I will not acknowledge the disgusting, abhorrent robocalls other than to reinforce "consider the source".

Respond at the polls or by mail, not on a blog. Vote

A Sandpoint man known for blanketing his city with racist, anti-Semitic propaganda appears to be responsible for a flurry of robocalls targeting U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California and urging residents of that state to “relocate to North Idaho, where very white is very right.”

The vitriolic messages, one of which refers to Feinstein as a “traitorous Jew,” have been received in large cities across California, including Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego. They state they were paid for by TheRoadtoPower.com, a site that began posting a video podcast series about two months ago.

The man in the videos, who advocates a white supremacist takeover of the U.S., does not identify himself by name, but multiple Sandpoint residents identified him as Scott D. Rhodes, who made headlines in December after police determined he had distributed racist CDs in the parking lot of Sandpoint High School. A police report in January revealed that Rhodes, 49, also was suspected of sending threatening robocalls to city leaders in Alexandria, Virginia.

“That’s him,” Lee Hardin, a black man and mortgage lender in Sandpoint who reported being harassed by Rhodes last fall, said when shown the Road to Power website.
