Clifford sure has a habit of using unsavory people to help her.
Where does a guy turn for work after being bounced from the Center for Public Integrity on plagiarism charges?
The Center for the Lack of Integrity?
No, try Wisconsin politics - digging up dirt in the Supreme Court race.
Consider Robert Moore the opposition researcher with one huge skeleton in his own closet.
The campaign for liberal Supreme Court candidate Linda Clifford has paid $22,500 to Innovative Research Group, Moore’s Delaware operation, to ferret out damaging information on Washington County Judge Annette Ziegler, the conservative in next week’s election.
Staffers with Clifford’s campaign said this week it was news to them that Moore was asked to leave the Center for Public Integrity, a respected D.C. outfit known for investigative work and online data, after being accused of filching others’ work.
The question is what will Clifford do about it? When her minions were caught lying to the police, she backed them up and accused the cops of lying. Her character was tested and was found wanting. In this case, will she just shrug and say “oh well?”
