Clinton Backers Retire Vilsack's Debt
Clinton Backers Retire Vilsack's Debt

Shortly after endorsing Sen. Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, former Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack (D) "received nearly $90,000 in donations to his defunct presidential campaign from some of Clinton’s major backers," the Los Angeles Times reports.

"The donations, disclosed in Federal Election Commission filings over the weekend, came from Clinton fundraising bastions of New York, California, Texas, and Washington, D.C. None came from Iowa, where Vilsack served two terms as governor."


That's one way to buy support.

1. Yes because Vilsack and the Clintons were complete strangers until this year.

Its not like the Clintons have been supportive since Vilsack first ran for gov or that they share political beliefgs as members of the DLC leadership.

:sarcasm:
