The Ohio contribution in October 2004 makes sense. Ohio was a battleground state and very much in play. Kerry was making an all out effort to win there. They [Ohio Dem Party] needed the money. I wonder what kind of personal connection she had to Kerry then or was it thru Beers and Wilson. That's a lot of money for a career USG bureaucrat to donate, especially in the last throes of the campaign.

re: Ohio

I'll wager she's been on multiple 'Rat fundraising and "war room" lists, if nothing else because of her previous donations and contacts with Clintonista 'Rats. I'll bet there was a Kerry or DNC email blast saying "help us win in Ohio, it's so close" and she showed her partisan stripes by ponying up the $$$.

Her husband's a "landscape designer", right?

It would be most interesting to see a copy of his client list, wouldn't it? And when they were paying (and how much they were paying) for his services ...
