On the Impotence of the FEC
Headline: "Republicans Fined for Posing as Democrats"
Well, good that they got caught and are being punished, right? Yeah, for something that happened in 1998.
From the article:
In announcing the agreement late Thursday, the FEC said Plesha and the committee sent out 40,000 letters and made 10,000 phone calls just before the 1998 general election urging registered Democrats not to vote for Ball's opponent, Rep. Ellen Tauscher, D-Calif.
Not in the article? Any mention of election results, though by connecting the dots you see that the GOP lost, anyhow.
