As someone pointed out in the comments to Leading Off this morning, we’d be remiss if we didn’t mention that the folks over at Unfair Park have found evidence that Craig Watkins’ campaign office is playing dirty. On the Observer‘s blog, there appeared comments impugning the character of Dallas County Republican Party chairman Jonathan Neerman. The comments pointed to a fine Neerman received from the Federal Election Commission, and they alleged that Neerman is the target of an investigation by Watkins’ office for money laundering. Thing is, Neerman can explain the fine (not a big deal). And the alleged investigation? Makes absolutely no sense.
Of course, the comments — 15 of them — were posted from a computer in Craig Watkins’ campaign office. That ain’t cricket.
