Reminds me of a meeting I sat some years back with someone whose role was to run 'dirty tricks' campaigns for Microsoft in the early Apple vs. Microsoft days. He talked about stuff like ways they used to undermine Apple dev conferences so no-one would be interested to go the following year and generally white-anting their community, especially education environment. It was a bit of an eye opener. I also suspect this guy is underselling his service. The article calls $20k/mth expensive. If your going to significantly affect an election I suspect there could be another zero or more there. And I wonder if he's ever worked for 2 sides simultaneously? Given the ethics involved this wouldn't be a stretch.
