[Sosfbay-discuss] No great press out of Pennsylvania

[Larry Cafiero_Liaison]

I'm going to assume, Sam, that your statement about Greens taking money 
from Republicans is sarcasm, as there is no "tradition" of this sort at all.

However, we have had Republicans co-opt the party for their own purposes 
right in our own backyard. In 2004, a Monterey Republican Central 
Committee member named Paul Bruno put up the filing fee for Carmel 
electrician unknown to anyone in the local party in Monterey for the 
15th Senate District in an effort to take votes away from the Democrat 
in that race.

I don't know this guy Romanelli, or the Green Party gubernatorial 
candidate they mention, but I would be willing to bet that they are 
Greens by registration only, and nothing else (or, worse, Republicans 
trying to game the electoral system at our expense). I think they are 
props set up by the Republicans in the same way this guy in SD15 was set up.

True, it looks bad, but then it would be interesting to see how the Pa. 
Green Party reacts to this.
