Frank Guinta injected three hundred and fifty-five thousand dollars into his campaign that he either cannot or will not prove is his own money. All it would take is a bank statement.
If it is not Guinta's money, this is a basically a type of campaign finance money laundering.
Three hundred and fifty-five thousand dollars is the kind of money that easily translates into a TV ad that can move the needle one point, and deliver victory.
The New Hampshire media are largely stenographing this in the framework of silly season politics.
But this problem will not go away after the election. Eventually the truth will come out. If the New Hampshire media fall down on their job, we will have a brand new Congressman enveloped in a potential scandal from Day One. Won't that be great for our state?
I personally would rather be focused on Frank Guinta's desire to abolish Social Security, and a host of other issues where he is wrong for New Hampshire. And as I said above, Guinta can put this issue to bed easily and immediately.
