Dem memo may violate ethics rules
in their dreams...

Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) leadership team has instructed Democratic lawmakers to use committee resources for partisan purposes, providing state-by-state data on campaign topics from job losses to highway funding.
...............
Democrats say Republican communications shops and committees do much of the same.

“Perhaps the ‘biggie’ is simply that we are being effective,” said a Democratic leadership aide. “The Republicans have got to be frustrated that none of our incumbents outside of Texas are polling below 50 percent.

“We provide local data. We provide sample press releases. We help them get on radio and TV. And yes, we work with committees to issue reports. I’m not sure we are doing anything differently from Deborah Pryce’s shop, but I am certain that we are doing it better. And we’re well within the rules.”
