MN Democrat's Staff Participated in Hack - a Federal Crime
They illegally obtain credit reports and now they are using illegally obtained login and passwords to view campaign material...it's a third-rate hackery:
Klobuchar is sensitive to crime issues, as violent crime is skyrocketing on her watch in Hennepin County. So she may have been chagrined to learn that a left-wing blogger apparently had hacked into Mark Kennedy's secure server and viewed a prospective Kennedy commercial; that the blogger had passed the login information on to Klobuchar's campaign spokeswoman, Tara McGuinness, last Saturday; that McGuinness watched the illegally-obtained commercial, and then recruited other Klobuchar staffers to view it.
Then again, perhaps Klobuchar wasn't so chagrined. Her office has reported the apparent federal crime to the FBI, and has hung the unnamed blogger and McGuinness out to dry--but only today, four days later, after Klobuchar had completed her scheduled debate with Kennedy, and after the Minneapolis Star Tribune had published a poll that showed her with a big lead.
This just blew up in Chuck Schumer's face.

If a Republican had done this, you would be able to hear the shreiking and whining for thousands of miles! When Democrats do it - all is silence!

As Bush says, wait until the court process plays out.
