Following Rauschenbach's Money

As was noted in yesterday's entry, former Republican state senator Henri Rauschenbach is noted for having dropped a $1,000 into the coffers of Hillary Clinton. That in and of itself is pretty curious; I'm not sure what kind of buy-in that gets a lobbyist. If you go another level deeper, into looking at political contributions made by Rauschenbach at the state level, you see that the needs of a lobbyist easily trump any personal beliefs. For example:

  • Five contributions to controversial Democratic state senator, Diane Wilkerson, totaling $925
  • 2 contributions of $200 each to Speaker DiMasi's Committee for a Democratic House PAC and 2 more of the same to the Speaker himself
  • Deval Patrick, Therese Murray and Tim Cahill each received 2, $200 contributins also
  • Even our current state senator, Rob O'Leary got $200
