From RaisingKaine.com this eve ...

In yet the latest Republican dirty trick, people in Northern Virginia -- myself included -- are getting calls purporting to be from the Kaine campaign. However, at the end of the message it says "Paid for by Honest Leadership for Virginia PAC." Wait a minute, what on earth is THAT? Well, according to the Virginia Public Access Project (VPAP):
Honest Leadership for Virginia supports the election of conservative Republican candidates in the state of Virginia, including 2005 gubernatorial candidate Jerry Kilgore.
All told, this (ironically named) group has given $2,852,603 (100%) of its money to Republicans, and $0.00 (0%) of its money to Democrats. Hmmm...doesn't sound like a Tim Kaine supporter to me. So how can the group be making robocalls that begin, "I'm Tim Kaine and I want you to know where I stand on the issues." Isn't that a bit strange, at the minimum? Illegal? Obviously, that's up to the State Board of Elections to determine. But in the meantime, I would strongly urge everyone to be EXTREMELY skeptical about robocalls in the next 24-36 hours. Probably, the best bet is simply to ignore them, given all the smarmy, slimy tactics being employed by Scott Howell and Company.

By the way, contact information for this group is available here. In short, they're located in Alexandria, their phone # is 703-832-0063, and their Treasurer is Mary Clancy (mclancy@rga.org). The PAC is affiliated with the Republican Governor's Association, whose membership includes Florida Governor Jeb Bush and California Governor Ah-nuld Schwarzenegger, among others. Having done such a great job in THEIR states, these Governors now want to tell Virginians how to vote in OUR state. On Tuesday, let's tell Governor Bush and his friends, "that's o.k., we are perfectly able to think for ourselves here in Virginia!" In the meantime, why not contact this group and let them know what you think of them?

P.S. Should be an interesting day at the State Board of Elections tomorrow. I hope they get right on this stuff, and penalize those responsible immediately.

P.P.S. Also, make sure you watch out for the fake -- and also most likely illegal -- Kilgore mailer that pretends to be from Russ Potts. These Republicans have no shame, doing this at the last minute when it will have maximum impact but be impossible to stop in time.

Here's the fake mailer:
