Democratic House Officials Recruited Wealthy Conservatives

Rahm Emanuel, I am sure you have seen his big ego on TV, gets busted. When he headed the national Democratic Campaign Committee he threw the weight of the party behind wealthy conservatives he recruited to run as Democrats even if there were Democrats already running. Some had even been Republicans until he talked them into running as a Democratic candidate with his support.

I was aware of this but not to the extent that is revealed. He was the anti-Dean in the Congressional races last time. Most of his candidates have been been more supportive of the war and of Bush. Contributed by zappa2004.
