Congressional candidate Vaughn Ward has posted three new issue statements on his website - and portions of one of them, on the war in Iraq, match, nearly word-for-word, the national security issue statement of freshman Congressman Duncan D. Hunter, the son of the longtime congressman and former Armed Services Committee chairman Duncan Hunter Sr., who in February came to Idaho to campaign for Ward. Ward and the younger Hunter have much in common; both are Marine veterans who served in combat in Iraq/Betsy Russell, Eye On Boise. More here.

Question: Does the latest incident of copying from other websites indicate the problem with Vaughn Ward's campaign may be deeper than ousted spokesman Ryan O'Barto?
