$2,300 is the magic number.

"Former Sen. Howard H. Baker, gave $2,300."

Oh yes... Of course... The very same Hard (Howard with a TN accent) Baker that called Ronald Reagan's tax cuts "a riverboat gamble!" Phhhhhhhhhhht!!!

I know, I know, but hey! Duncan Hunter is barely conservative enough for me!!!

After Arnoiled Shortsnicker, (Maria's sex slave) I cannot trust Repellican celebrity candidates who are un-candid!!!

As long as Howard is just a donor, no big thing. It will be interesting to see him form his policy teams though

Well I sure don't like that Abram dude from Michagan on his team one bit!!! No sir!!! Not one little tiny bit!!! If he's gonna start puttin soft on terrorism, one-world/no borders A-Rabs from Ypsilanti of Arab America in his policy positions, then I'm given ol Fred a really wide berth!!!

Mind you, that's NOT because of the natural nationalities, but strictly due to the actions and policies!!!

It escalates with inflation somehow and is set at a round number by the FEC.
