Oh they're running skeered! HillCAP? LOL!
They are starting early--they have been trying to shove Hillary to the forefront of the nominees, but it seems that their local resident is just making too big of a fool of himself so they jumped the gate.
Anyone know if they are the swifties?

David Rosen, former National Finance Director of Hillary Clinton's 2000 Senate campaign, is under a four-count federal indictment charging that he "knowingly and willfully caused to be made materially false, fictitious, and fraudulent statements" to the Federal Election Commission regarding more than $1 million in campaign contributions. Each of the four felony counts carries a possible penalty of five years in prison and $250,000 in fines.

This is the most massive fraud ever charged against a political campaign by the U.S. Government.

The criminal charges against Rosen stem from the largest fundraiser on behalf of Hillary Clinton's Senate campaign. The August 12, 2000 Hollywood Gala Salute to President Clinton featured performances by Cher, Diana Ross, Toni Braxton, Patti LaBelle, Melissa Etheridge, Sugar Ray and Michael Bolton. The event cost organizer Peter Paul more than $1.2 million to host, and raised $1 million in "hard money" contributions. By falsely reporting those costs as $401,419, the Clinton campaign avoided paying at least $800,000 in hard money -- not including the fair market value of the performances -- during the crucial final weeks before the election. If Paul's contribution had been reported fully as required by law, it could have bankrupted the campaign.

Peter Paul's extensive evidence, which we will organize and present on this site, shows clearly that Hillary Clinton knew of the actions taken by her finance director, and that she orchestrated those actions and others in violation of federal campaign statutes and regulations.

1. Is Rosen under a real or in-their-dreams indictment?
Sorry...too lazy to go to the link and verify if actual, legal indictments have been issued or if it's just another spin game to get it out there on the Internets.

3. He is under indictment
But I have no idea if he'll be convicted. I think some charges were thrown out.

2. Doesn't presenting this "evidence"
jeopardize the case against Rosen? BTW, if Hillary orchestrated these "actions" she would be under indictment. More bullshit.

4. Agreed (and thanks)
Isn't funny how these people are in an incessant shit-stirring MO? They throw it and throw it and throw it just to see what sticks, then BLAM with what does.

But, hey! Connect any Con to illegal acts or show evidence of actually committing an illegal act and it's pointed fingers deflecting guilt and youthful indiscretions.

7. They want to warn anyone inclined to help Hillary to stay away
This is just a warning.

They ruined lives during the Clinton administration. They will do it again. Just because you're innocent doesn't mean you have the money to defend yourself. Years of delays without any discovery. Payments to lawyers for every tiny bit of nonsense spewed out. Sidney Blumenthal couldn't even afford to pursue his libel case against Drudge--and he was libeled!
