For those of you who are curious, here’s the link to Danielle Allen’s political contribution record: http://www.opensecrets.org/indivs/search.php?name=allen%2C+danielle&state=&zip=&employ=&cand=&c2008=Y&c2006=Y&c2004=Y&sort=N&capcode=8c8bp&submit=Submit

As could be expected, she’s an early (2004) and often Obama contributor, and even shoved some money to Jean Francois Kerry.

BTW she seems to have broken federal election laws by donating more that is permitted to a candidate.
