The Fraudulent Fraud Squad
Perhaps even with the demise of ACVR, the hard work—of giving credibility to a nonproblem—is done.

(and now federal inmate) Bob Ney. The group was headed by Hearne, national election counsel to Bush-Cheney '04, and staffed with other Republican operatives, including Jim Dyke, a former RNC communications director.
