It must be nice to be able to write one's self a check like that for a political campaign.
Democrats- the party of the common man.

Must be the same. I knew he wrote himself a $500,000 check about a month ago.

Chump change compared to Corzine. Has CT no pride compared to its neighbors in NJ where a Senate seat comes REALLY high?

yeah, you just gotta LOVE the "party of the working class"

Now if I write myself a check for $2,000,000.00 and deposit it in my checking account shouldn't the deposit cover the overdraft ?
