Also, I was wondering to what extent some of these candidates might be accused of breaching campaign finance laws. Again, bad timing in the midst of gearing up for an election..

As far as the OP, she admitted to the embezzlement, and she will pay. I dont see this as rocking any base. Its been happening for years, on both sides of the isle. I think voters will take it in stride with the knowledge that crooks dont care about party lines. Instead, they will be thankful this one got caught along with the rest.

This happens to companies, organizations and even ordinary people. Should we all reflect negatively towards those entities as well? Its worst when the embezzler takes from a non-profit charity trying to do something noble; like find a cure for cancer with children that suffer from that terrible illness.

How does it effect Democrats exactly?

Two things...first of all, you're absolutely right, so don't let the second thing detract from that. ;)

Second...I laughed at Sanity's post, because I so could picture fargle posting, if it happened to a republican, a thread called " stupid republican cunt hires lying sack of shit for campaign manager". Not that I'm saying he actually would, but it's easy to picture, and quite funny.

You apparently have no issue with your bank trying to scam you out of your most valuable asset, so tell us all here why you find this particular scam to be news worthy?

Ah yes, a matter of which side is doing it.

Good observations Iam

Add to that, with the predicament that the Dems have gotten themselves into by antagonizing pro Israel voters in New York and Florida, a misstep like this in a heavily Dem stronghold such as the Peoples Republic of California and the results in 2012 could be historic, even in comparison to the Reagan landslides

Do you not approve of a republic as a form of government?
or:
Do you not approve of the people controling that republic?

I would hope those intelligent enough to debate politics would show that intelligence through the use of words.

No clue why you would think I am trying to "kid" you... or why you would beleiev what I post is in any attempt to affect you whatsoever.
