swift boat funders come to the 49th ward.
if anyone out there has some time to give in the final days of joe moore's re-election campaign, perhaps this might motivate you-

In new attack ads airing on Chicago TV stations, Ald. Joe Moore (49th) criticizes the major donor to challenger Don Gordon for his ties to Republicans.

Gordon's campaign has received $60,000 from Gold Coast mutual fund manager David Herro, who, according to federal records, gave $5,000 in 2004 to Swift Boat Vets and POWs for Truth. That group funded attack ads against Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry, a Vietnam War veteran.

and this sleaze head has been whining the whole campaign about who takes campaign contributions from whom.
