Break-in at Washington State Democratic Hdqrs.

According to reports from Seattle, the Washington state Democrats said someone broke into their campaign headquarters Monday night. Brian M. Rosenthal, a Seattle Times reporter, wrote on Twitter that the office was the state headquarters for President Obama’s and Washington state gubernatorial candidate Jay Inslee’s campaigns.

KIRO 7 news channel reports that the Seattle Police are on the scene investigating the break-in, but that it was too early for any further details.

The Plumbers were after--well, God knows what, but some kind of information they could use to dhe detriment of the Dems. What could these burglars gain in a political sense from this act?

Bet it turns out to be some kinda angry dickhead just acting out his rage.

except to make the GOP look like even bigger crooks.

And Wash. is a pretty blue state as I recall, so maybe
no big deal.

they desperately want a republican governor here, no doubt to fuck up the voting.

I'm disappointed with Jay's ground game. I have been called by OFA, i've been robo called to death by McKenna's people.. but strangely silent from Inslee.
