Patrick Moran, son of Rep. Jim Moran (D-VA), resigned from his father's campaign on Wednesday after conservative activist James O'Keefe released a video that appears to show him offering advice to an undercover videographer who claimed to want to commit voter fraud.
"Effective immediately, I have resigned from the Moran for Congress campaign," Patrick Moran said in a statement to TPM sent from his campaign email address.
This was in VA, right? So who is the state AG? That’s right.
I think the dims are executing wide spread fraud in every contested battleground state. How better to characterize the liberal left in this country.... IF you can’t win, cheat!!!!
To combat this, all every conservative has to do is vote.
AG is Ken Cuccinelli. The state board of election has to request an investigation.
Jury box. And then...
Democratic Party is a criminal enterprise. This POS will be around.
Jim Moran doesn’t need to cheat in that district in order to win.
However, cheating needs to happen in Morans district for Obama to carry the state. This is national news, because cheating there could ONLY benefit Obama.
Holder will now announce an investigation into some fctitious GOP vote scam
Because neither Project Veritas nor James OKeefe are exempt from criminal prosecution for conspiracy to commit election fraud, and neither Project Veritas nor the "undercover operative" were authorized to conduct a sting operation like this, it looks like the video gives the DoJ an open and shut case against the conspirators.
These people live in some alternate reality.
Am I wrong or is this the fastest a rat has resigned in like ever?
Makes me wonder if there isn’t more to the story?
It's a grey area. He mostly just talked about it and there's not enough there to charge conspiracy. He could argue that he was just humoring O'Keefe's investigator and was going to turn him in to the authorities and forgot about it.
The O'Keefe videos are great at exposing the attitudes of the Left, but in almost all cases they are the ones suggesting the crime. If this were a law enforcement sting it would be tossed out as entrapment.
(Don't flame me, I think the video is great for what it reveals about the rats, I just don't think there's a crime there as adjudicated by U.S. courts in this day.)
COBOL2Java and Mrs. COBOL2Java raise their hands...
I guess Moron jr. has to get a real job now.
No jail time, huh?
Unemployment keeps going up! He’ll be collecting food stamps and that much needed phone.
I'd bet this is also a State crime. He'd better have a very long list of perps or he's going down for a long time.
