Reid Campaign Targets Angle Supporters With Phishing Website {Harry Does Fake Sharon Angle Website}
hotair.com ^ | 7/6/10 | Legal Insurrection

Posted on 07/06/2010 6:44:14 AM PDT by drpix

A few days ago, Sharron Angle launched a new format to her website, giving the campaign a more professional looking web portal.

Harry Reid’s campaign, however, took the code from the prior Angle website and launched a website called “TheRealSharronAngle.com.” The fake website was what, in internet terminology, is called spoofing, where a seemingly real website is created, usually to obtain information under false pretenses (frequently referred to as “phishing”).

“capturing of names of persons seeking to add their names and email addresses as supporters of Sharron Angle.”

Anyone getting e-mail bombs?

Just the start of the dirty tricks that Reid will use to get reelected.

This is really scary stuff. It also makes me angry enough to want to fly to NV for a couple of months to work on the Angle campaign. I’ll contribute instead.

Would'nt that be stealing and maybe copyright violations?

Wouldn’t this fall under the purview of the US Postal Service and Secret Service as “Wire Fraud?”

Dingy harry gets elected by all the immigrant Cali voters living now in Vegas and by the crooked unions attached to casinos. The rest of NV does not vote for him.

Got a question, but is Senator Reid pretty much “toast” from a election perspective, and now even those of his base that you mention will not be able to rescue him this time around?

Suspecting it’ll come down to how much power the reid machine casino still has and how much damage nobama has done to LV.

From today’s perspective it doesn’t look very good for dingy harry, but the “machine” won’t show itself until the vote. My guess is he’s done.

As others are asking, why isn’t a federal criminal complaint being sought for identify theft and wire fraud?

He is called “Dirty Harry” for very good reasons. I would NEVER count him out until the very end. Reid has millions and millions to devote to reelection - not to mention that he can tap into the many left-wing sources of funding, such as Soros. Angle probably doesn't have one tenth of the money. Reid is already sending out multiple campaign mailing pieces each week that are filled with misrepresentations of Angles’ positions, attempting to paint her as a dangerous kook. Even though things don't look good for him according to the polling data, Reid can still expect to get the majority of Democrat votes: unions, teachers, senior citizens (who are & will be bombarded with propaganda from the AARP), Blacks, and Hispanics as well as the illegal alien votes. BTW, Reid is of course against any ID requirement at the polls, and a while back was endorsing same day registration & voting for the state of Nevada under the guise of enabling more people to participate in the voting process. Under that scenario his supporters could easily register and vote all around town, and it would take months to sort through the mess and verify the legitimacy of the votes - if it is done at all. I seriously doubt that it would be.

I still say he is DONE. “Dingy Harry” or “Dirty Harry” pretty much has with Obama’s help, RUINED L.V. and no amount of efforts will rescue him.

Of course, Reid could try to do dirty politics, and I have no doubts it could happen, but when your big money making city is bad-mouth, that does not bold well for Reid.

What I am saying is that Reid will get the support of the majority of Democrat voters, no matter what he does. His primary job now is to influence the independents (who are not leaning for him), damaging the Angle candidacy so that independents and Republicans will see him as a better option - or at least not cast their votes for Angle. In addition to that he will do whatever it takes to get more votes.

On the other hand, Angle can not count on getting the entire Republican vote. Reid already has the state RINOs. There is a group calling themselves, “Republicans for Reid” who include many big names in Nevada as well as national politics, like Sig Rogich. http://republicansforharryreid.com/members.html

At this point, she is winning over Reid, I believe by a few points in the polls. The Nevada primary was in June. Up to that point she was having to focus on winning the primary. Now is the real battle.

Typical; if it wasn’t fake, Harry could not handle it.
