LOUISVILLE, Ky. --
The campaign headquarters of U.S. Rep. John Yarmuth has been broken into twice in the last five days.

Each time, the thieves took computers, but left behind cash and other valuable items, The Courier-Journal reported.

Christopher Hartman, a spokesman for the Louisville Democrat's campaign, says the thieves walked away with sensitive campaign information.

Hartman said thieves broke through a locked door into the campaign finance office, but no personal financial information about donors was taken.

Hartman said the campaign has contacted both Louisville police and the FBI about the break-ins.

Yarmuth is opposed in the Nov. 4 election by Republican Anne Northup, whom he defeated in the 2006 election.

Why don't these campaigns have hidden security camera's is what I wonder. they know the cons track record for thievery. I sure hope no Obama 'sensitive' info was lifted by these basids!

2. THESE are the items (the laptops) that need implanted RFIDs! Jeebus people!

5. They also need their hard drives to be password-protected

and the backups to be in a really secure safe.

And their offices watched by security cameras.

7. How about diskless clients?

8. Even better -- provided they can't break into wherever the data's actually stored.

(There still has to be a disk somewhere)

Also, then you have to make sure no clear text goes over the line or someone will tap it and no one will have to break in at all.

4. Republicans do this every election, why hasn't anyone caught at

least one of them...for crying out loud they can't be that good at it, they are repubs...

10. I'm sure these break-ins were Republican-led.

Republicans have no shame or morality.

11. this is the end result of the hate radio fest going on in this

country, besides the killing and jailing of democrats and liberals, that is - it is the win at any and all cost mentality.
