Warning: Tom DeLay and Kenneth Blackwell Are Causing Problems

Disgraced Republican, Tom DeLay, and former Ohio Secretary of State, Kenneth Blackwell, are out in our communities stirring up disturbances. The writer of an article says that DeLay and Blackwell's group are involved in local politics in Longmont. Here is an excerpt from Your Hub Longmont:

....Tom DeLay, the no-holds-barred Washington operator known as "The Hammer" and the Republicans Party's chief whip and majority leader from 1995 to 2005, " aims to instill an army of conservatives across the country with his political street-fighting skills."1

DeLay and former Ohio Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell (during the 2004 elections) have formed the Coalition for a Conservative Majority. Funded by undisclosed right-wing backers and organized as a 501(c) 4 non-profit, the Coalition for a Conservative Majority (CCM) is recruiting "thousands (who are being) trained and mobilized to wage political war in meetings, online and in the media."1

DeLay and his Coalition for a Conservative Majority are "alive and well" - here in Longmont......

After a quick Google search, I discovered that the Coalition for a Conservative Majority has a chapter in Columbus, Ohio!!!! Wow! I certainly will avoid those nutjobs. My concern is that members of this group will infiltrate legitimate meetings, groups, or upset voting. Their plan to "wage political war" sounds almost like a hate group.
