Howard is getting pummelled by "fat cat" supporters of Hillary who are disappointed that they haven't been able to buy wrap up this nomination. Big donors are asking for their money back.
From the NY Times:
Pushing to seat the Florida delegates, at least one top Clinton fund-raiser, Paul Cejas, a Miami businessman who has given the Democratic National Committee $63,500 since 2003, has demanded Democratic officials return his 2007 contribution of $28,500, which they have agreed to do....
Christopher Korge, a Florida real estate developer who is another top fund-raiser for Mrs. Clinton, held an event last year in his home that brought in about $140,000 for the national party, which was set aside in a special account for the general election battle in Florida. But he told committee officials this week that if Florida’s delegate conundrum was not settled satisfactorily he would be asking for the money back.
Let's show Howard some love and replace the $168,500. I set up an ActBlue page so that we can see the love.
Hat tips to nj mom and NMDan for their terrific diaries and a shout out to Dump Terry McAuliffe for having a timeless name ... however much I wish it were dated.
UPDATE: pattyp posted a terrific diary and has her own fundraising page at the DNC here.
