I don't see how your post, Dan, has anything to do with Tim's post. Gary did not receive more that $300.00 from any individual. Yes, there are three individuals working for one company that donated...but at least that was disclosed. Take a look at Shedstad's finance report and the contributors' employers are not even listed as they should be. Furthermore, I don't understand why a candidate shouldn't reimburse him/herself for campaign expenditures...actually, I believe it is legally necessary to reimburse candidates for out of pocket campaign expenditures. Seems to me like your just reaching for an opportunity to Gay bash...oops, I mean GaRy bash, just like you did with your comment about Bicking the 'family man' in ward 9. Don't worry, your meaning wasn't lost on me.
