I’ve long understand any web logs anymore due to the fact too a lot of weblogs were either boring or not present. Or at worst, both. Right here it can be unique, the website is thrilling and informative. Thank god you will discover even now this kind of sites on the net. Then once more it truly is really worth browsing.

Excellent read, I just passed this onto a colleague who was doing a little research on that. And he actually bought me lunch because I found it for him smile So let me rephrase that: Thanks for lunch!

Too bad the unspoken “rules” about the Convention changed this year and left Denver, small donors and taxpayers holding the bag. Follow the money. The Denver host committee is an independent “non-partisan” 501(c)(3) organization. Donations to it are tax deductible. The Democratic National Committee and Democratic National Convention Committee are “political” (527) organizations. Contributions are not tax-deductible.

The DNC/DNCC have a contract with the Denver host committee that imposes fund-raising deadlines. In past years, when the committee fell short, the nominee’s campaign (and wealthy donors) made up the difference. This year, the campaign has “directed all inquiries” about the fund-raising shortfall back to the host committee while the campaign finance chair has told large donors not to give to independent organizations. Seems like a double bind to me.

You twit. It’s not the DNC but the City of Denver that can’t pony up their part of the cost. Any city hosting a convention like this will offer a certain amount of money to the convention. They get it back in sales and income and business taxes. Too bad Denver didn’t hit the mark.

The reasons are many and one of which would be the Obama/Clinton race that just ended. Let’s give Denver and Colorado some time to get the money together.

If you have the balls, look at the coffers of both parties and you will see that D’s have an advantage.

Cheers!
