In a confidential internal memorandum obtained by Face The State (PDF), the Colorado Democracy Alliance outlines a roster of "operatives" who worked for Democratic victory in the 2006 general election. The document outlines specific tasks for various members of the state's liberal infrastructure, including a campaign to "educate the idiots," assigned to the state's AFL-CIO union. Among the operation's intended targets: "minorities, GED's, drop-outs."

Individuals named in the document, marked "CONFIDENTIAL," "for internal use only," and "DO NOT DISTRIBUTE," are high-level elected Democrats including House Speaker Andrew Romanoff, former Senate President Joan Fitz-Gerald, as well as Gov. Bill Ritter's press aide and former campaign chief Evan Dreyer. All are specially marked as "off-the-record or covert."

The main thrust of the piece seems to be that the Colorado Democracy Alliance is a taxable non-profit set up to provide anonymity for wealthy donors.  They had both overt and covert operatives in the political sphere.  

Face the State seems to hyperventilate over all this.  Two words: Karl Rove.  They're shocked, shocked, I say, when their similar tactics are used by their political foes.
