Just from the headline and the fact that it's CNN, you know that Campbell is a Democrat. Were he a Republican, then that word or "GOP" would be in the headline.

News reporters only report facts that are unusual not common place.ie: a man giving birth to a child. Therefore, to report his party/democrat is not necessary. It is usual behavior--common place for Rats. ;^)

But the judge added that during the trial he "was overcome, almost appalled, at the breadth of misconduct in your administration."

Nowhere in the entire article does it ever mention that Campbell is a Democrat.
