Shady goings-on (per usual)

Yes, it's me, Bluebonnet, back again. - BB

Todd Gallaher, a former staffer for Republican State Sen. Bob Deuell's office, has been accused of impersonating a Democratic lawmaker and a Dallas Morning News reporter. He reportedly sent a mass email from repjuangarcia@hotmail.com (not Juan Garcia's real email address, obvs) with a decade's old photo of a candidate for Aransas County Sheriff showing some, erm, skin before the primary, and then went on to impersonate a reporter for a phone discussion with a California ethics group.

After these accusations came to light, Gallaher resigned. His former boss Deuell says, "Todd made an error in judgment, and I hate it because Todd's judgment is usually very good." That is one ginormous error in judgment.

How about the $11,000 Todd was getting as a consultant?
