(Quick aside: were you aware that Dallas Blog is still up and running? I know. I was surprised, too.) Over on Dallas Blog, Tom McGregor raises some tough questions about how Eric Celeste, DA Craig Watkins’ communication director, is conducting his business. McGregor implies that Celeste violated campaign fundraising laws by sending out an e-mail on behalf of Watkins that appears to carry the endorsements of Twitter and Facebook. I’m aghast. And I agree with McGregor. The FBI, Texas Attorney General, Texas Ethics Commission, Federal Election Commission, and the U.S. Justice Department need to look into Celeste’s activities immediately. (Full disclosure: Celeste ate spring rolls at my house Sunday night.)
