		<description>The  media leaves the impression  that this type of gamesmanship is unusual;however, the Dems use this tactic  twice last year and the old time media ignores it.

The AZ Democrats &quot;Gamesmanship&quot; Just for Year 2010:
1) Republican  Schweikert successfully ran against incumbent Dem Mitchell in CD5 last year. The Dems sent out brochures in support of another party Libertarian candidate (believe Nick Coons)to take votes away from Schweikert from his conservative/libertarian base. The media was silent because they support playing dirty tricks to help a candidate they love-Mitchell.

2) When Republican Kelly almost bet Dem Giffords (lost by 4000 votes) it was due to 11,174 votes going to the Libertarian candidate, Steven Stoltz,  Who paid for and distributed the  direct mail for Stolz? You guessed it-the AZ Democratic party. The Dems put on Stoltz&#039; brochures that Stoltz was  &quot;The Real Conservative&quot;knowing that war hero Jesse Kelly was the conservative/tea party favorite? Hum! Where was the old media then?

And the Stoltz hit piece by the Dems didn&#039;t even have the required &quot;paid by&quot; on the brochures until Bivens admitted to it. Where was the Az Rep&#039;s indignation? What wasn&#039;t Don  Bivens asked to resign as Dem State party Chair (believe he has now since Cheney in office)? (Mesa took down Olivia&#039;s signs because they didn&#039;t say &quot;paid for&quot;. ( Mesa&#039;s employees are unionized?).

In the Cortes case, the media are in full frenzy. This poor Hispanic patriot is called &quot;ignorant&quot;. &quot;sham&quot; (check out Lewis&#039; puppet master-Randy Parraz for the definition of Sham),  and the ultimate bigotry from Roberts that Cortes does not know how to say &quot;incumbent&quot;.  Now the AZ Rep is calling Cortes stupid because a group they despise (conservatives) engaged in a trick to support a candidate the AZ Rep hates.The out of date media is silent on the dirty tricks of their left wing brethern. For supporting documents on above, go to Expresso Pundit.</description>

		<description>WeThePeople -

Pray tell - yes there is a difference. It has to do with disclosure, honesty and state election laws. The Lewis campaign can acept donations from whomever it pleases (and surprise! even Russel Pearce politcal foes!) as long as the campaign follows state laws in disclosure. What evidence do you have of Lewis malfeasance other than wild-eyed conjecture. There is clear fraud taking place with the Cortes sham campaign. Funny how with Pearce and his followers &quot;rule of law&quot; seems to apply to everyone - except where their interests are concerned. I guess it just goes to show - if you are afraid can&#039;t win an election legally - go ahead and commit fraud in the attempt to steal it. How very patriotic!</description>

		<description>Mesa then also needs to examine who paid for Lewis&#039; signatures. There are videos all over the Internet with Randy Parraz raising money all over the country to get Lewis signatures and to pay for the signs. Pray tell me, what is the difference?

Is this (not ok)  because Cordes is a conservative republican and  (yet ok) Lewis is backed by IAF, MoveOn.org, ACORN and SEIU and other mob-controlled unions? Do these Mesa employees mentioned above belong to a government union(s)??  

Why is this rule not fair for one vs the other? If you go after Cortes, then you need to look at Lewis. If not, this is just another racist attack against a conservative Hispanic and bigoted against a woman Republican.</description>

		<description>It won&#039;t be to hard to figure out which company printed the signs. 

Okay, LD 19 and East Valley Tea Party, are you guys going to help Cortes out financially with her new campaign and legal fees? Make sure to save some money for your own legal fees, you shameful, rotten scoundrels.</description>
