Update on The Vermont Plot

Well, now I'm confused...

According to the Gateway Pundit, the alleged conversation never took place:

UPDATE: ** The Senator and Governor Never Spoke. **
I just got off the phone with Brian Hart a spokesman from Senator Brownback's office and he said that the conversation in question between Senator Brownback and Governor Sebelius did not take place. (Friday AM)

So, perhaps somebody hung ol' Quinn out to dry.

Interesting side note. Lawyers from the DNC sent XM Radio a letter demanding a retraction from Quinn and stating:

The statement made by Mr. Quinn is demonstrable, unequivocally, and absolutely false. Governor Dean had no such conversation with Governor Sebelius, ever.

Two letters sent out. One to XM Satellite Radio and one to FreeRepublic.com:

Something stinks here...


UPDATE: Wed. 05/16/07 As of yet, Quinn and Rose have not retracted anything despite the threats from the lawyers for the DNC. And still the DNC does nothing. I'm guessing this story is dieing out and I have my own theories as to why. But I can't prove anything so I'll keep the theories to myself. But know this, I'll be keeping this little nugget in mind come time to vote in the Republican Primaries...
