Column: If you have the stomach, follow the money

By Rod Rose

THE LEBANON REPORTER (LEBANON, Ind.)

According to http://www.capitaleye.org, Obama and Clinton have made nearly $1 million in campaign contributions to “superdelegates” — the unelected delegates who represent about 20 percent of the 4,000 delegates to the Democratic National Convention.

As of Feb. 25, Capital Eye reported, Clinton has been endorsed by 75 percent of the superdelegates to whom her campaign donated money, when Obama did not make a donation. Obama was endorsed by 85 percent of the superdelegates who received money from his campaign and not from Clinton’s.

Is this legal? Yes.
