Funny this should come up in a week when some folks have gotten themselves all worked up by my asking three simple questions.
Blue Ox has done some work to determine who is Molligator? A blog that appeared recently and disappeared just as quickly. It's gone now but apparently the postings were critical of gubernatorial candidate Becky Lourey.
While I can't be certain, a quick search pulled up sites here and here which seem to identify Molligator as paid Steve Kelley staffer Pam McCrory. My sources in the 7th Congressional District tell me that she is one of two Kelley staffers in the 7th and is based out of Bemidji. Ironically, this is confirmed by Molligator herself in, ahem, amusing comments left on Minnesota Blue.
If it were true that a blog was actually a front operated by a campaign, without actually stating that, would that be considered deceptive? Does it matter?
You tell me.
