Chicago Tribune Focuses on Millionaires in the 8th Congressional District; Reveals Pro- Abortion Emily’s List Provides 40% of Melissa Bean’s Cash
The biggest news in today’s Tribune article was that there are not two, but three millionaires running for the Republican nomination to opposed Melissa Bean.
It is obvious that David McSweeney has money to burn. He sent out a press release saying that he had spent just short of $1 million, as of the end of the year.
And, given that Al Salvi spent some good bucks from the family till on two statewide races, it stands to reason that there might be more where that came from.
The surprise to me was that Teresa Bartels and her husband have parlayed Manpower franchises into the Millionaires’ Club. (No, I’m not talking about the tacky restaurant that used to…and may still be...just west of Michigan Avenue.)
The other item I found of interest was that the rabidly pro-abortion Emily’s List has provided about 40% of Democratic Party congresswoman Melissa Bean’s campaign cash.
