Got a bare outline of something involving that republican, Gomez, from Rachel Maddow.
He was part of some group, that now he is denying that he was a part of.
Anyone know anything else about this?

from there I leave it to others.

I think he was a spokesperson for the group that claimed Obama was a swine for mentioning that bin Laden was dead.

on taking some of the credit for killing OBL. http://www.boston.com/politicalintelligence/2013/05/08/national-democrats-hit-gomez-opsec/MCgkIxZHlhnRR9S331Ee3O/story.html
Now that Markey released a video criticizing him on that, he is saying Markey is swiftboating him.

Turns out he's a birther.
No wonder Gomez is trying (and failing) to distance himself from that group.
