You don’t know what you are talking about! SuperPAC and a regular PAC are not the same thing. SuperPACs can get almost unlimitless funds from corporations and high-dollar donors - PAC just receive personal contributions. Btw show us what interest groups or corporation donated to SarahPAC?
The distinction is stupid, part of the rediculous attempts by career politicians to control how people spend their money to express their opinions. SuperPac and Pac are what we end up with when government regulates people. I’m opposed to that regulation, I think it’s an infringement on our rights.
I have no idea who donates to SarahPac. I’m sure they get money from people who like was Sarah does, and would like to see her continue. Probably also from people who want her to run for office, and hope the money helps get her elected.
I forgot though that some conservatives have now decided that corporations are evil. It’s a bit scary.
OK, to answer your question a bit better. I looked up SarahPac to see the donors. I have NOTHING against people OR corporations giving money to support causes they like. You asked the question.
The first donor on the list was the President of Melina Imports. Now, these are individual donors; the donation is from the president of the corporation, not from the corporation itself, although when you see news reports indicating which companies are supporting which candidates, they always refer to money given by officers of a company as being related to that company, just because that’s what they do, whether it makes sense or not.
The president of Acorn Advisors also gave money. I doubt this is the same “ACORN” that we all hate.
Also, the chairman of TH MCELVAIN OIL & GAS
And the President of RA MILLER INDUSTRIES
And the Owner of APW ENTERPRISES
And the President of FUN EQUIPMENT SALES
And the CEO of ALPS SOUTH LLC
The President of FLAVA PUFF
The President of TRAINYARD TECH, LLC
The Vice President of AW WILLIAMS DRILLING
The President of PUMP REPAIR SPECIALIST INC
Now, you could argue that all of those people who own companies gave their own personal money without regard to their companies. But it is clear that people who OWN businesses are giving money to SarahPac. Probably because they believe what Sarah Palin is doing will be good for their companies. Because that is what business owners do — give money to support candidates who will help their businesses.
And there is nothing wrong with that, or at least there wasn’t from a conservative point of view until someone decided “crony capitalism” really meant “businesses are evil”.
Hitting early and hard was the name of this election cycle. I am thrilled Rick is in hard. These are the same reasons I remained convinced Sarah wouldn’t. Too little and way too damn late. SP needs to keep him honest once he boots BHO.
