McMahon campaign reports lush spending, but not much detail

[ccharles000]

Hartford - According to campaign finance reports, Linda McMahon spent more than $2 million in the first three months of her bid for the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate.

But what those filings don't always show is who the campaign actually paid.

In the quarterly summary the McMahon campaign filed with the Federal Election Commission in October, some major campaign vendors are identified, including the direct-mail contractor Majority Strategies and the communications consultants DLA LLC.

But hundreds of thousands of dollars in other campaign expenditures, for services ranging from legal advice to computer assistance, are listed as in-kind contributions from Linda McMahon herself, with no information to show what companies or individuals volunteered or were paid for that work.

That lack of detail appears to run afoul of federal regulations requiring campaigns' spending to be itemized and disclosed to the public.

is as phony as wrestling.

2. Is this how the Monkey Trainer runs the WWE also?

Is this how she plans to govern too?
Typical Conservatives such as Mrs. McMahon preach of fiscal control and transparency yet they seem to forget these principles when it comes to themselves.
