THIS explains why RW trolls and GOP operatives sound like they're on meth when they post - THEY ARE!
Documents Found In Meth House Bare Inner Workings Of Dark Money Group
Found in a meth house in Colorado, they were somewhat of a mystery, holding files on 23 conservative candidates in state races in Montana. They were filled with candidate surveys and mailers that said they were paid for by campaigns, and fliers and bank records from outside spending groups. One folder was labeled "Montana $ Bomb."
The documents pointed to one outside group pulling the candidates' strings: a social welfare nonprofit called Western Tradition Partnership, or WTP.
Altogether, the records added up to possible illegal "coordination" between the nonprofit and candidates for office in 2008 and 2010, said a Montana investigator and a former Federal Election Commission chairman who reviewed the material. Outside groups are allowed to spend money on political campaigns, but not to coordinate with candidates.
"My opinion, for what it's worth, is that WTP was running a lot of these campaigns," said investigator Julie Steab of the Montana Commissioner of Political Practices, who initially received the boxes from Colorado.

(16,254 posts)and they probably know a man named Rove. They seem to think they can continue on by changing the name on the letterheads. That's two we know of...voter suppression and this group. How many more?
Surely the FBI knows about these groups. Why haven't they been checked out?
Maybe the Repug party is financing their operation with drugs. Wouldn't be the first time, would it?

None of this is a surprise to me. I remember when peach growers in the south would pay workers with crack not too long ago.
