Colorado Republican Scott McInnis’ old opponent (and erstwhile TPM favorite) Bob Schaffer has taken notice of the plagiarism scandal that has turned McInnis’ campaign on its head — and is taking the opportunity to have a nice little jab at his former foe.
Yesterday, Schaffer tweeted a link to the Denver Post story that broke the news, saying: “Family Foundation miffed it paid $300k to congressman for plagarized work & no-shows. Den. Post http://tw0.us/JYo #tcot #redco”
Maybe its personal? The backstory: In 2007, McInnis dropped out of a Senate primary battle with Schaffer, citing family reasons. Then, just days before Nov. 4, McInnis threw his fellow Republican under the bus, telling the press “I would have beat Udall” in the general election, and lamenting the “radical element” in his party.
