SD33 Watch: Democratic Foundation of OC Chair Gives $1,000 To Sidhu

Posted by: Jubal | 05/09/2008 9:24 AM

Here's an interesting item from yesterday's Late Contributions report on the Secretary of State website that sure to make something of a splash in the Mimi Walters-Harry Sidhu brawl for the SD33 GOP nomination:

A $1,000 dollar contribution to Harry Sidhu from uber-attorney Wylie Aitken, the co-founder and long-time chairman of the Democratic Foundation of Orange County.

I've known Wylie since I was in high school (his Darren and I went to Servite together). He's a gentleman and a good Irishman, and I'd be proud to have his support if I ever lost my mind and ran for elective office.

However, it's almost guaranteed this ends up in a hit piece against Harry.

Will Sidhu reject Democrat support like he rejected Republican support? said:

Sidhu has to reject this contribution. Otherwise he will have officially accepted the support of Democrats while rejecting the support of Republicans.

Interesting that a right wing conservative candidate (or at least he's supposed to be)is getting campaign donations from the democrats??? Like, what is with that?

Rock-ribbed Republicans getting dollars from Dems and endorsements from the Log Cabinets! What next? Gifts of steak knife sets from abortionists?
