So many reports - where do I start? The Fake Tea Party Candidates

There is more than one fake Tea Party Candidate.  I have seen reports about fake Tea Party candidates in New Jersey, Nevada, Florida and Michigan.  The most well known of these is Ashijan in Nevada because he is a mate of Harry Reid, and the purpose is to siphon off votes from Sharron Angle. However, the first of these stories is about the candidate in New Jersey, spoiler who has been set up in the Rundle vs. Adler race.

Liberty Chick writing for Big Government has a really good synopsis of the whole story. However, there is a new twist, and this is something that really needs to be investigated. DeStefano ads have popped up as Googleads.  Please check my link where you can clearly see the design of the ad, as well as the way in which it is meant to lend TEA Party legitimacy to this fake candidate.

To get on the ballot, the candidate needed to have 100 signatures. This was achieved with the co-operation of young DNC volunteers in the area.  Congressman Adler has denied knowledge of the scheme.

The purpose of this fake candidate is to siphon off the conservative vote from Rundle. It is an attempt to confuse the voters, especially those who tend to think that the TEA movement is a political party, which I might add is clearly not the case at this point in time. 

My understanding of the TEA movement is that it involves people from both the Democrat Party, Republican Party, as well as Independents and Libertarians. In the past there have been Libertarian candidates, and there have been candidates from other minor parties, including those watermelons known as the Green Party (they pretend to be Green but they are in fact Marxists through and through).  In fact it would seem that there are a lot of Democrats involved in the TEA movement.

In each of the cases that are known though, it is the Democrat candidate that has set up the fake TEA Party candidate. First there was Harry Reid assisting Ashijan to be the spoiler and fake candidate, then there was the fake candidate in Florida, then another popped up in Michigan, followed by the revelations in New Jersey. What each of these fake candidates have in common is that they are not known by those involved in the TEA movement. They are not endorsed by the TEA movement.
