Conservative Group Sought Pay For Play

This is a weird story: a leading conservative advocacy organization told Fed Ex it would support its position in a labor and legislative issue - - for a $2+ million fee - - and when the payment demand was rebuffed - - sided with competitor UPS instead.

Is this how political consulting at the national level really works?

James - can I assume you were being sarcastic with that comment of yours?

Or do you really believe there are any political angels, especially at the national level?
