Tom Delay hires family members to run his campaign and pays them with private donations and he's the devil-incarnate; JFK makes his brother AG at taxpayer's expense and he's a saint.
Someone hiring family to be part of their campaign seems perfectly supportable to me. I just don't see the problem with it.
They have to raise the money. How they spend it to get themselves elected is their own business.
Kerry kept about 17 million dollars of his campaign donations. He can never run again and keep all that money when he gets out of politics.
Is anyone screaming about that?
