NV paper Exposed..Taylor Marsh. PAID OPERATIVE FOR CLINTON
All you who were saying that she wasn't the Nevada paper who will endorse Clinton tears Taylor Marsh for her lies and for being a PAID operative. She sent the 4000 paid Clinton commenters she is in charge of, to muck up the papers comment section.

4) Last year, Marsh accepted money from the Association of Federal, State, City and Municipal Employees (AFSCME), to blog at a Democratic event. AFSCME has endorsed Clinton and is a longtime ally of the Clinton family. Has Marsh taken payment from AFSCME recently? If so, how much?

1. Boy, not even an iota of surprise here if this is true. So Marsh is
spouting and just coincidentally accepted money from a longtime ally of Clinton? I don't believe so much in coincidences; the fact she won't comment speaks volumes.

7. Or Grover Norquist...

And does it help or hurt the party’s broader message? It undoubtedly hurts. Clinton’s mailing could have just as easily been written by the Republican National Committee or Grover Norquist. Clinton is using anti-tax rhetoric that Democrats usually reject as nonsense, not embrace as fodder for attacks against other Democrats. Talk about Dems using conservative frames, this is Exhibit A.

Obviously, politics ain’t beanbag. Clinton, Obama, and Edwards are going to take rhetorical shots at one another, and some of them are going to be cheaper than others. I get it.

But this mailing is really offensive from a Democratic perspective. When the Clinton campaign used it in New Hampshire, I’d hoped it was borne of desperation and wouldn’t be repeated. That’s it’s now become a standard arrow in Clinton’s quiver is deeply disappointing.

4. If the Obama supporters start repeating it endlessly, we'll know it's a lie.

11. I suggest people actually read the link
It in no way identifies Taylor Marsh as a "PAID operative" for the Clinton campaign.

Nor is there any mention of "4000 paid Clinton commenters" she allegedly is "in charge of".

14. I can't even begin to parse your first sentence.
All you who were saying that she wasn't the Nevada paper who will endorse Clinton tears Taylor Marsh for her lies and for being a PAID operative.
Huh? What does that say? I'm reasonably sure that "she wasn't the Nevada paper who will endorse Clinton," but that seems obvious (that "she" isn't a "paper"), and I can't even begin to fit the rest of the clauses and parts of sentences into an intelligible statement.
