Fraud - As if the

Fraud - As if the war wasn't causing enough trouble for Democrats, Bill Luther's campaign has other problems.

For those who haven't been following the situation, longtime DFL activist Sam Garst filed to run for Congress in the Second District, under the "No New Taxes Party" moniker. Those who know Garst (and I've sparred with him for years on the Minnesota Politics forum) know that he never met a tax that he didn't want to french-kiss, and that he's as DFL as they come. The bid was a transparent ploy (to those in the know) to siphon conservative votes away from Bill Luther.

Luther denied any involvement by his campaign at first. Now, he's found a scapegoat - his "overzealous" campaign manager.
