A Third-Rate Burglary?: Bush's Washington-State Campaign Offices Ransacked

Via Jim's tip, over at Powerline:

State Republican Party Chairman Chris Vance called it a "Watergate-style break in" and said he suspects Democrats are behind it.

"If you're just some burglar looking for computers to sell to buy drugs you take every laptop in the office maybe," he said. "But they knew exactly whose computers to get. They got the executive director's computer and the get-out-the-vote director's computer."

If any of you haven't registered to vote yet, please think about what these guys are up to, and consider taking the five minutes to sign up to vote.

I'd be shocked and outraged if I hadn't already grown used to this kind of bullshit. Now I'm just sad and tired and disgusted.

Every person on that stolen volunteer list is in danger of a violent attack.

Posted by: Jake on October 1, 2004 07:55 PM

I hadn't even thought of that.

Worse yet - they're in danger of being told not to come to the polls on Election Day because their registration is invalid... and equally contemptible ideas.

I swear, at this point I'm more worried of mass voter fraud than I am of Bush losing. It'll tear this country apart in a way that'd make Florida2000 look like a neighbors' fence squabble.

Guys, whats the deal with Polipundit? I clicked on their link and it says their account is suspended. I hope no trouble is afoot....

TBR: Unfortunately, Florida 2000 was just a stupid squabble turned into "evil republicans steal elections". Voter fraud is going to be a problem, as always. I hear Kerry gets 90% of the dead vote.

Rob:

They have a bad case of popularity. They are busy moving their blog to a dedicated server and will be back shortly.

Black Republican. I am with you.

Just as Robert Kennedy was the first Attorney General to standup to the Mafia, we need an Attorney General that will put an end to rampant voter fraud.

I suggest that the police enquire as to where Kerry's brother is?

Seems to be a running theme

Hey, lets get Dan Rather on the job, he can re-live watergate before he stars in his very own version.

Sounds like a dirty trick, especially given the string of burglaries that seem to have followed Kerry throughout his career.

But, whoever's in charge of the computers at the WA Republican Party should have encrypted everything---just in case. In fact, they may have. But probably not.

The "who do you think your neighbors are voting for" question is designed to avoid the Shy Tory problem, wherein conservative people lie to schmollsters because they don't want to go on record with a likely left-winger telling them who they're really voting for. So instead the question is who do you think your neighbors are voting for, so people can talk about who they themselves support without actually having to admit it to a left-wing rando stranger recording their answers on the phone.

Interesting football history: How the forward pass was created in response to the nineteen -- 19! -- people killed playing football in 1905 alone
The original rules of football did not allow forward passes. The ball was primarily advanced by running, with blockers forming lines with interlocked arms and just smashing into the similarly-interlocked defensive lines. It was basically Greek hoplite spear formations but with a semi-spherical ball. As calls to ban the sport entirely grew, some looked for ways to de-emphasize mass charges as the primary means of advancing the ball, and some specifically championed allowing a passer to throw the ball forward.

Pitfall was a really good game. I don't know if it was available on Intellivision. Update: It was. But I don't know if it's included in the new unit.
