Need more info on GOP dirty tricks |
|
Followup from a post of mine yesterday: I'm doing research on Republican dirty tricks. Besides the obvious ones well-known to the public (Rove, Atwater), what other GOP skullduggery are you aware of? Could be stuff that's occured on the local level.

Fortunately the bill failed.
