CORRUPTION!!!!!
Missouri Democratic Party to pay $20,000 campaign finance fine:
The Federal Election Commission has imposed a $20,000 fine on the Missouri Democratic Party for violating federal campaign finance laws during the 2002 election.
The fine -- part of a negotiated settlement -- comes less than a year after the party paid a separate $110,000 fine to resolve similar allegations from the 2000 election.
Of course, it reflects more on the labyrinth of campaign finance violations that make it an incredibly violation-fraught journey to try to run for political office in this country than actual corruption. Too bad for the Missouri Democrats.
Oddly,
Fired Up! Missouri doesn't mention this story.
