Millionaires Support Clinton: Well, they can afford it, and it's THEIR money ..

22 People Combined To Give $43 Million to Pro-Clinton Super PACs:
BY: Joe Schoffstall April 15, 2016 5:35 pm Hillary Clinton’s candidacy is receiving a major boost from a small group of deep-pocketed donors who have combined to give $43 million to super PACs supporting her nomination, an analysis of campaign finance filings by InsideGov shows. The three major super PACs backing Clinton– Correct the Record, American Bridge 21st Century, and Priorities USA Action– have collected nearly $70 million to date with the help of wealthy liberal donors cutting checks in the seven-figure range. Of the $70 million these groups have raised, 62 percent has come in the form of contributions totaling $1 million or more.

Oh.

That seems reasonable to me.

After all, it's not as if a small group of ordinary people haven't combined to spend their lunch money to support the candidate of their choice.

That would be .. just .. wrong!

(Maybe it's just me, but I'm pretty sure I blogged about a similar situation a few years about.   Like .. Four years ago.  And Eight years ago.  Nahhhh ... that's just silly-talk!)
