Dirty Trick's No Treat

Submitted by ub on

It's Halloween, which means it is now time to put on that costume for Trick or Treating, but please keep it clean, because there have been too many dirty tricks being played out.

Dirty tricks, politics, as usual, unethical acts, illegal campaign practices or pranks intended to disrupt or sabotage the campaigns of opposing candidates, or similar practices carried out against rival countries or corporations for espionage or commercial purposes.

While you may have seen or partaken in some pre-Halloween surfing on social media over the weekend, today is totally and completely the day. Be afraid, be very afraid. @230P on CSPAN 3 or WWW.CSPAN.ORG
