Money Talks But Does It Buy?
Pennsylvania's richest person is donating tens of millions of dollars to candidates who support alternatives to schools. He is by far the largest donor in the state. But, does that guarantee a win? Voters can be fickle, especially when they know someone is trying to buy influence. Money talks in the form of ads, brochures and campaign materials, but if voters aren't listening, all is for naught. And, unfunded opponents use the fact of single-issue donations against the person getting them. Candidates are always on the lookout for cash to run their campaigns, but they need to be careful they are not tarred by the person writing the check.
