Yes what was done was wrong, and it was and is being dealt with. But come on, we are talking about ONE campaign ad, which I believe was to be shown to the PUBLIC! Advantage? If Mark Kennedy believes for one second that this one ad was going to change the election, he certainly doesn't deserve to serve us in Washington. I have seen more dirt thrown by the author of this site that far out do what has happened here. Oh sure, the comment will be "but it was all legal", but was it ethical? Until campaigns start to realize that ethics really do matter issues like this will have very little impact. Many will say well if you listen to the Kennedy Radio Ad perhaps he got what was coming to him. Sum it up, Blogger Noah was in the wrong, Amy's staff was in the wrong, Kennedy Campaign is in the wrong for closing down their website (not even the one that was "hacked"), the company in Texas was in the wrong for promising security but offering the kind that can get "hacked" into by trying only 18 different passwords. Let the FBI do their job, and lets get back to discussing the issues that really matter to those of us in Minnesota. Diana you got to let the pill take effect first.

You will find that there HAS been a press conference, the staff person HAS been let go, and the matter HAS been turned over to authorities. The Kennedy campaign says that it HAS shut down its website for protection, but when I just checked I was able to get the original site so I guess it HAS NOT been fully secured.
