Deja vu all over again: Burglary at Democratic headquarters -- in New Hampshire
CONCORD, New Hampshire (AP) -- Burglars have broken into Democratic Party headquarters.

No, you're not having a flashback to 1972 and the infamous event that ultimately led to the greatest scandal in U.S. political history and the downfall of Richard Nixon's presidency.

Instead of Washington's Watergate complex, this burglary took place at the New Hampshire Democratic Party's headquarters over the weekend. Neither police nor party officials will comment on what was stolen and whether the break-in was politically motivated.

Office workers reported the break-in to police on Monday. Concord Police Sgt. Mike McGuire said some items were taken, but he declined to be more specific. The assessment was the same from Kathy Sullivan, the chairwoman of the state Democratic Party.

'Some things were taken, but I don't really want to get into that right now,' Sullivan said on Tuesday.

There was no indication that any personal financial information was taken, said party spokeswoman Kathleen Strand.

'We want to assure our donors that their personal financial information, as far as we can tell, has been protected, and we hope to find out who did this soon,' she said.

This could get interesting...

On one hand, will a bunch of reporters be lurking about, checking to see if this is just "the tip of the iceberg.."?

Or is it some over-enthusiastic 'Reich-wing' brownshirts?
Maybe associated with those folks over at "LGR" (littlegreenfootballs.com I think) who are currently throwing a minor tantrum at digg.com?

It's doubtful that it's a random break-in.
Possible, but doubtful.
Concord is a quiet little state capital with very little crime.

I'll try to keep my ear to the ground*....


* I hope spring hurries up, it's been really cold lately.

  1. Please forgive the off topic comment. I couldn't find any other way to contact you. You dugg my Firefox Add Digg Control (ADC) extension a couple of days ago, in response I assume to the .3 version that I released. I wanted to apologize to you for having uploaded that version without adequate testing. It had a bug that prevented you from being able to click the 'digg it' link. I've since uploaded .4 which corrects the problem.
