Re: Much Ado Over Whether Lieberman CampaignSite Was Hacked

["kaiser scapegoat" <kaiser_scapegoat () hotmail com>]

Hmmm - "Lieberman forgot to pay his bills" was the story yesterday - when 
the default page said to call the billing department.

Much discussion ensued from the accusation yesterday, and Lieberman was 
surely aware of all the questions when he called a press conference this 
morning to blame the Lamont campaign.

This was an 11th hour drop letter "Rovian tactic" if there ever was one. 
Even if Lieberman doesn't know what's going on with his server, he certainly 
engineered the way he's exploiting it. The focus is not on getting the site 
back up or accepting Lamont's proffered help - the focus is on getting the 
mainstream media to report that Lieberman has accused Lamont supporters of 
hacking. And the mainstream media fell for it: MSNBC, CNN, New York Times...

Kos is now just saying Lieberman is paying the price for skimping on the web 
site:

Alternatively...someone attempting to explain why the site is still down:
