Three cheers to the Senator for clearing that up. Maybe it’s just me, but was a press release really necessary? Then again, I guess his media folks need something to do. Still, can the Senator really afford to cut-off accepting donations from anyone? CJ
WASHINGTON — Today, Presidential Candidate Chris Dodd released the following statement on his campaign’s policy not to accept money raised by fugitives from justice:
"I understand that it is simply impossible for a presidential campaign to know everything about its donors and raisers, however once criminal activity of this sort – being a fugitive from justice – comes to the candidate’s attention they certainly should not keep the money linked to those criminals. Indeed, all money raised by a fugitive from justice is irreparably tainted.
"It is the policy of my campaign to refuse to accept or possess campaign contributions raised, solicited, or delivered by fugitives from justice."
