Sheehan's SF Headquarters Heavily Damaged in Late Night Attack |
2008-10-31 |
Just five days before the election, at 3 a.m. Thursday morning, someone smashed through all the front windows of the Cindy Sheehan for Congress campaign headquarters in San Francisco. Although someone had been in the office less than an hour earlier, no one was in the building at the time of the incident. No One was hurt and there were no witnesses. Sheehan is running against Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Speaker of the House, for the 8th Congressional District seat. "It seems to have been a calculated intimidation tactic," said Tiffany Burns, the Cindy for Congress campaign manager. "One of our computers was stolen, but no other property was taken from our offices and no surrounding buildings were targeted. Clearly they wanted to both frighten us and to gather information." Total damage to the campaign office is currently estimated at more than $5,000. |

#9 What have we here? Media-licensed thuggery by Pelosinians or a false-flag by the Cyndinistas? Time will tell, though the media won't (unless Republicans did it). |

#8 Didn't she just pull in about 5K at a rally? that makes it a wash. but it would be good to see her beat nancy; she lack of seniority would give her diddly-squat to do and take NP's hands off the purse. |

#5 "It seems to have been a calculated intimidation tactic," Or it could be a smash and grab by a coupla junkies, which is what I'm betting on. |
