Got this off the local Republican Party web site:
Nevada Irony - rich vs unemployed Since the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that businesses, individuals and corporations could donate unlimited amounts of money to "Super Pacs" (poliltical action committees), a cruel irony in rich-versus-poor is occuring in Nevada. The state of Nevada has the highest unemployment rate in the nation (12.6% in December 2011). Meanwhile Nevada b[font=]illionaire casino magnate Sheldon Adelson cut a $5-million check to the Super PAC supporting Newt Gingrich's campaign as a "last act of loyalty" to an old friend. This week, to add to the rich vs unemployed disparity, Adelson's wife donated another $5 million to Newt's campaign. Newt, of course, claims to know nothing about all of this because the high court decision ruled that the PACs must be independent of the candidate.[/color][/font][/size][/font]
