[After. . . The New York Times contacted the Clinton campaign on Friday, Howard Wolfson . . .said a check to pay Mr. Semetis had been put through the day before, and he furnished a copy of the check, dated Feb. 21, as proof.]

No surprise Wolfson and Clinton’s other longtime associates are looting campaign coffers for millions. From a previous Times story:

“Mark Penn, Mrs. Clinton’s chief strategist and pollster, and his team collected $3.8 million for fees and expenses in January; in total, including what the campaign still owes, the firm has billed more than $10 million for consulting, direct mail and other services, an amount other Democratic strategists who are not affiliated with either campaign called stunning.”

“Howard Wolfson, the communications director and a senior member of the advertising team, earned nearly $267,000 in January. His total, including the campaign’s debt to him, tops $730,000.”

“The advertising firm owned by Mandy Grunwald, the longtime media strategist for both Mrs. Clinton and Bill Clinton, the former president, has collected $2.3 million in fees and expenses, and is still owed another $240,000.”

I hope there are dozens of leeches like this, sucking her campaign dry. This, after all, is what she wants to do to us if elected.

Interesting, the check's dated the same day as the lawsuit. Which means they'd probably had the demand letter in their hands for a couple of weeks, or they could have been served by fax.
