Officials: Democrat’s Biggest Money Man Has Mob Connections

As Sens. John Kerry and John Edwards arrived in Boston today for the Democratic National Convention, so did the California man who is their single biggest contributor.

He is Stephen Bing, a wealthy film producer who, with little fanfare, has managed to steer a total of more than $16 million of his money to Democratic candidates and the supposedly independent groups that support them...

Democratic Party officials said they knew nothing about the man who law enforcement officials tell ABC News is Bing's friend and business partner — Dominic Montemarano, a New York Mafia figure currently in federal prison on racketeering charges.

Hmmmm. This could be fun.

Maybe they can get the Florida Supreme Court to extend prime time so edwards gets his speech in.

John Cougar Pu**y Fart!

[TomGuy]

Colmes was getting ready to spout his memorized talking points, and Zell shut him down. Colmes couldn't even contradict Zell.

Colmes is trying to carry the water bucket, but he's doing a lousy job of it. Zell has him off his talking points, so Colmes is lost.

Dang, I left out the part that said the Dim money man's mob name is "Donnie Shacks". LOL!

[afropick]

I know Crazy Al would come through with something good. Dems are going to spend all night trying to take this big foot out of their mouth.
