I don’t know if this is an April Fool’s joke (because it would be a really really nasty one – and I mean nasty spiteful), but Theo has a set of PDFs on what appears to be blatant forgery. Violation of public trust, etc., etc., ad nauseum.

A reconsideration of the candidate list:
Sten: Professional politician. Had a long time to get his act together, failed to.
Burdick: Don’t like her background. Part of a really nasty PR firm. In her favor, though, she says she’ll step down in the Senate in favor of this position (and do we really want someone who’s willing to walk away from a State position like that? Abdication of responsibility, anyone?) and resign from Gard and Gerber.
Boyles: Well, even if she didn’t perpetrate this fraud herself, she hired someone who was willing to do so on her behalf. So, incompetence in managerial work, and a case of the warm fuzzies. No thanks.
Lister: Arrogant, somewhat abrasive, but has a schtick with “public service as a burden”.

I’ll take door number four, Jack (via).
