48. At least point out that Sirota is an Edwards supporter
In any case, the "I don't take contributions from lobbyists/PACs" is always bullshit. For example, a pharmaceutical executive or hedge fund operator or trial lawyer who bundles donations from employees may not be a PAC, but it's still a "pac," still a lobby - if you see what I mean, still buying political influence. The statement is hypocritical in itself and without meaning. Not very unlike what you are objecting to in this case. Nobody's "shunning ruling class sensibilities" among the top candidates, nobody, say what they will.
