I felt like I was suffering from a terrible case of deja vu as I recalled last fall when members of the then Gator Party stole newspapers from different campus locations when the Alligator broke the story of e-mails between top Gator Party members discussing how they were going to keep the Orange and Blue Party out of critical positions in Student Government.
