…for candidates. Those end of the quarter big dollar contributions are coming in. Today, at the Missouri Ethics Commission:

C111205 12/29/2011 SPENCE FOR GOVERNOR Gary Seeman 935 Morrison Ave. St Louis MO 63104 Alpha Packaging CFO 12/29/2011 $10,000.00

C111205 12/29/2011 SPENCE FOR GOVERNOR Carol McLerran 2904 W. 124th Street Leawood KS 66209 Alpha Packaging Executive 12/29/2011 $25,000.00

[emphasis added]

It’s a good gig, if you can keep it.

And even Lieutenant Governor Peter Kinder’s (r) campaign managed to garner a mercy contribution:

C091145 12/29/2011 FRIENDS OF PETER KINDER James McDonnell III 40 Glen Eagles Dr. St Louis MO 63124 Retired Retired 12/28/2011 $10,000.00

[emphasis added]

That doesn’t make Brad Lager (r) too sad. Perspective.
