		One of Scranton’s first acts in 1979 was to hire Nat Goldhaber on the state payroll as his Special Assistant.
		Scranton also falsely told the Patriot that -- as of 2001 -- he was “no longer active in the movement.” Last week, when Politics1 referenced Scranton’s past cult ties, the Scranton campaign contacted the conservative GrassrootsPA.com website to insist Scranton had “never endorsed Hagelin” and supported Bush.
