"Former Massachusetts GOP Gov. Mitt Romney has contributed $42,000 to Nikki Haley’s campaign for governor in South Carolina, POLITICO has learned."

Mitt Romney gives $42,000 to Nikki Haley - Andy Barr - POLITICO.com

This explains her support now for him because I just wasn't getting her, a tea party winner, supporting the least conservative of the bunch.

He godfathered her and she owed him.

You really are desperate...lol. There is nothing unusual about this or out of the ordinary. I guess you think Mitt Romney should not be allowed to contribute to anyone's campaign, ever. Of course, he contributes to certain people's campaigns.

There were allegations about her infidelity prior to the election, so it very well could be!

42,000 to Romney is like a dinner for 2 at taco bell to the rest of us.

Yea, his success in life should not have happened. Sad for someone to be so successful that people who can only eat tacos are jealous of.

And to think he donated his entire inheritance away because the man is a economic genius.


At least he did not get loans for bankrupt companies and get tax payer money in returns for his campaigns like someone we know did.

???? where in my post did you read or assume that I was jealous or criticizing Romney?



I was just using a metaphor so people can understand that him giving 42k to someone is not really a big deal.
