...and so does everyone else even remotely aware of all this. Absolutely correct, my email address is on several media contact lists; unfortunately, that's not the one you're using, out of my six or seven. That address is used strictly for non-blog political work, and receives no media mail. The only way you could have acquired that is from an insider, by the way. At the same time, you missed some really obvious people, like the publisher of this blog. So if you claim to have done extensive research, frankly, I think that's a lie as well. For example, you missed the entire grassroots leadership in New York, basically except for me. And I know, because I've made phone calls.

The first such email I got was, in fact, from Roger Stone. Others have said the same thing. This was followed by the Caputo emails. Now, there's the W. J. Mahoney Club. All are pushing the same message - save Joe Bruno. All are using precisely the same list. Politicker wrote about that, here.

Notably, this account has not received any emails from any other rightwing organization - those go to a different account set up for that purpose. Nor has my actual media account received any such mail. If you had bought that address, which isn't publicly available anywhere, I'd be getting other such emails - but I'm not. Not. From. Anyone. In fact, I'm signed up with every single republican Presidential candidate under a different account; that would presumably be the one you'd have. You don't. I think I've figured out how you got it, however; more on that soon.

In short, the evidence is clear. You and Roger Stone are working on the same objective. The points where there are probable linkages are deliberately obscured. You're obviously sharing your lists. Your denials of any linkage or coordination are being laughed at, and furthermore causing people to wonder what it is that you're hiding. This because there's nothing illegal about slinging propaganda on Bruno's behalf. It's disreputable, mind you, not least because Bruno's little buddies have held upstate in a stranglehold while it withers and they collect campaign donations - some even wind up under Federal investigation for corruption, imagine that - but it's not illegal. So why are you so, frankly, obviously lying?

Why the cover-up? Inquiring minds want to know. Is it because you're somewhat vestigially embarrassed at trying to overturn the election of Governor Spitzer, who has had the bad taste of stirring up the cozy little insiders' game in Albany? Or do you understand that the Joe Bruno stranglehold on our state's future can't survive unless you manage to damage the main vehicle for reform in this state, which just happens to be Eliot Spitzer?
