Shades of Watergate

Starting with a third-rate burglary:

The burglary over the weekend at the New Hampshire Democratic Party’s Concord headquarters came five weeks after a break-in at a Democratic Party office in Manchester.

The door to the Manchester Democratic Committee office was broken down sometime over the weekend of Jan. 20 to 21, according to party officials and the Manchester police. Raymond Buckley, chairman of the city Democrats and vice chairman of the state Democratic Party, said he doesn’t believe anything was taken from or vandalized in the Manchester office, and he dismissed any connection between that incident and the burglary of the party’s headquarters in Concord last weekend.

Several Democrats, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that laptops and other equipment had been taken from the [Concord] party headquarters, though they said it appears that any sensitive information was protected by passwords or stored on servers that were not taken from the building.

The Bush administration really does have old Nixon staff members, don't they?
