O'Neill can be heard on tape telling Nixon he voted for Humphrey. He's also a trial lawyer, which is a traditional Democratic constituency. He has donated money to Democratic pols in his home state and counts among his friends, the former Democratic Mayor of Houston. Oh yeah and he donated a kidney to his wife last year. The Rats can attack this man all they want, but he's a good spokesman for the SBVs.
True enough about the Humphrey thing. But careful about calling him a trial lawyer -- from their site: "Clements, O’Neill, Pierce, Wilson & Fulkerson, L.L.P. handles “Commercial, Oil & Gas, Securities, Intellectual Property & Employment litigation." In the legal industry, "trial lawyer" means a John Edwards type -- the plaintiff's bar.
Where can I find the records of his state and local donations? O'Neill calling himself a dem is a big-time pet peeve of mine, but I may cool off when I see something documented.
O'Neill has donated to both, about 25,000 to Dems and 7000 to GOP. Some of the donations attributed to O'Neill are his law partner's who has a similar name.
