Two AZ GOPers Posed As Communists To Make Damaging Contribution To Dem
Source: Talking Points Memo
Two Republicans posed as members of the Northern Arizona University Communist Party to make a damaging donation to Rep. Tom O’Halleran (D-AZ), who is running for reelection next month, according to a Friday Guardian story.
The two men’s attempts to tie the congressman to communism seem to have been clumsily done.
They came into O’Halleran’s campaign office bearing a jar of $39.68, demanding a receipt paid to the communist organization.
Per the Guardian, finance director Lindsay Coleman immediately drove to the local Republican field office to return the money. One of the men posing as a communist emerged and accepted the jar. Coleman said that his partner in the donation attempt was a field organizer for the Arizona Republican Party.
The state party did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Real Clear Politics classifies Arizona’s first district, in which O’Halleran is facing Republican challenger Wendy Rogers, as “leans Democratic.”

already, so they can't use that one again, for a while, until they think Democrats won't remember.
Apparently they don't believe being a pilot is strong enough, in itself, to award Wendy Davis a Congressional seat:
They should have shown Wendy flying her plane while playing a flute, or doing card tricks.
