"Special interests" choosing sides

Posted at 8:20 AM on April 21, 2006 by Bob Collins

The Analyst has an excellent post (the only kind he has), on the PAC contributions in the 6th District. Turns out, he discovered a reporting error in the FEC filings that excluded all of the Native American tribal donations, most of which seem to be going to Phil Krinkie, an opponents of state-operated casinos.

As I've pointed out before, there's not a lot of difference between Jim Knoblach and Phil Krinkie on the issues. The exception is the question of gambling -- specially, state sponsored gambling.

Apparently the tribes noticed that too.
