“An aide to U.S. Sen. Chris Dodd dismissed as “old news” a report Monday that said the Connecticut Democrat collected more than $160,000 from American International Group employees and their spouses after a top executive urged employees to give.”
Old news? It is the first that I heard of it. Evidently it did not develop any,”Legs” the first time around. In light of recent events it certainly deserves a re-look.
“Dodd quickly “hit pay dirt,” according to the article — and he later transferred the donations to fund his failed 2008 presidential bid. Between 2003-2008, Dodd collected more than $223,000 from AIG employees, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.”
