Somebody tell me again why he's running as a Democrat?

Frank over at Polar Donkey has an interesting post about Harold the Younger's voting record with regards to repeal the Estate Tax, which nationally affects only the wealthiest Americans. Yet, despite the fact that his district is urban and lower-to-medium income, he gleefully has supported this "reform", until he recently modified his stance.

The fact that he has been receiving campaign contributions from Wal-Mart's PACs I'm sure has NOTHING to do with it.

Also, Frank points out that Sam Walton himself RARELY, if ever made contributions to candidates of either party. However, since his death, his descendants have given heavily to right wing candidates and think tanks.

Just another reason not buy anything from Wal-Mart, up to and including your Senator.
