Meet Scott Walker's Billionaires | Crooks and Liars

"Scott Walker's out-of-state support has been remarkable. Out of the $4.5 million he raised in the first quarter of 2012, nearly $4 million came from out-of-state donors in the five-week period before the limits on donations for the recall kicked in, and most donors were boys sitting at the Billionaire Boys' Club table. Here are a few notable out-of-state names, industries and donation amounts:

Stanley Herzog, MO (Construction) $250,000
Robert Perry, TX (Construction) $250,000
Sarah Atkins, MO (Building Products) $250,000
David C Humphreys, MO (Building Products) $250,000
Trevor Rees-Jones, TX (Big Oil) $100,000
Bruce Covner, NY (Hedge Funds) $100,000
John M Templeton, Jr, PA (Investments) $30,000
