Santorum funding the Greens

Everyone is getting so excited about Santorum's little Republican conspiracy to fund the Green party and get their candidate in the Pa. Senate race.

This isn't the first time the Repubs have done this by any means. Remember 2004?

Roger Stone, the longtime Republican dirty-tricks operative who led the mob that shut down the Miami-Dade County recount and helped make George W. Bush president in 2000, is financing, staffing, and orchestrating the presidential campaign of Reverend Al Sharpton.

Ostensibly this move was to put an active critic in the Democratic primaries. Off the record, the goal was to scare off white middle of the road voters from the Democratic party.
