Queen Tina Looking For Press Leaks?

I just noticed something interesting on the GOP/Phil Hart Central Committee agenda for tonight. After the Elephants deal with state committeeman Matt Roetter -- whether thumbs up or thumbs down -- they had another item on the agenda that sez simply: "Damaging the Republican party in the press." Now I know that Chairwoman Tina Jacobson, pictured, isn't fond of what has been going on here at Huckleberries Online. So I have to wonder whether she's going to try to guess who's my sources -- she might be surprised -- and punish them in some way. That, or she simply might follow the Red Queen's lead and begin shouting, "Off with their heads." After all, the local CC seems to be on the other side of the looking glass. You can read the agenda for yourself here.

Question: Aren't you guys glad that I have sources in the bowels of the local Republican & Democratic parties? How else would you get the interesting behind-the-scenes stories? From the Coeur d'Alene Press? Bwahaha.
