Breaking news about the Democrat who was arrested for vandalizing the Denver Democrat headquarters. (H/T Gateway Pundit)

Here’s news from the Associated Press.
Excerpt:
A suspect in a vandalism at the Colorado Democratic headquarters was once a paid campaign worker for a Democratic candidate for the Legislature, according to public records.
Maurice Schwenkler, 24, was arrested in Denver Tuesday on a charge of criminal mischief after windows were smashed at Democratic offices. Many of the windows displayed posters supporting health care reform, and (democratic) party officials called it political vandalism.
The Denver Post reported Wednesday that Schwenkler was also arrested in St. Paul, Minn., on the last day of the 2008 Republican convention on a charge of unlawful assembly.
No details of that arrest or Schwenkler’s activities at the time were immediately available.
There was no phone number listed for Schwenkler and it wasn’t immediately clear if he had an attorney.
The Post reported Schwenkler was paid $500 in November 2008 to walk door to door in support of Democrat Mollie Cullom, a candidate for the state House from Centennial.
Cullom lost to Republican David Balmer.
Campaign records show Schwenkler was among dozens of canvassers paid by a political committee called the Colorado Citizens’ Coalition.
Balmer said he suspects the vandalism might have been intended to make the Republican Party look bad.
“This sounds like the type of Democratic tactic from the left fringe trying to make Republicans look mean-spirited,” Balmer said. “In this case, it blew up in their face.”
The Democratic Party estimates the damage at $10,000. A second suspect was still at large.
So at this point I think that it is still an open question as to whether this was a faked hate crime, an inside job by Democrats, or something else. It’s pretty clear that the Democrats would love to appear as victims of those who oppose Obamacare. They believe that their opponents are devils and that they are angels. And if there is only evidence AGAINST that view and FOR the converse, then maybe they manufactured some evidence to fool the public.
