The WSJ is hot on the trail of the donation trail of Norman Hsu, but he’s not the only “shadow donor”:
“When Hillary Rodham Clinton held an intimate fund-raising event at her Washington home in late March, Pamela Layton donated $4,600, the maximum allowed by law, to Mrs. Clinton’s presidential campaign.
But the 37-year-old Ms. Layton says she and her husband were reimbursed by her husband’s boss for the donations. “It wasn’t personal money. It was all corporate money,” Mrs. Layton said outside her home here. “I don’t even like Hillary. I’m a Republican.”
The boss is William Danielczyk, founder of a Washington-area private-equity firm and a major fund-raising “bundler” for Mrs. Clinton. Mrs. Layton’s gift was one of more than a dozen donations that night from people with Republican ties or no history of political giving. Mr. Danielczyk and his family, employees and friends donated a total of $120,000 to Mrs. Clinton in the days around the fund-raiser.
In an interview, Mr. Danielczyk said he “did not and would not” reimburse employees or others for their political donations. Such reimbursement would be illegal. Mr. Danielczyk said he was a co-host for the event at Mrs. Clinton’s home. “Everybody was asked to contribute,” he said, “some said yes and some said no.” He added, “No arm was twisted.”
Oh well that settles it doesn’t it!
NOT!
Just how many of these “bundling donors” and “shadow families” are still out there.¬† Just how far does this scandal go, and more important through whom?

1Mac,
Did you read the criminal complaint filed on Hsu in New York. Whoa!! See Hot Air.
One of the biggest things was the revelation that Hsu was threatening his investors if they did not contribute to certain candidates that Hsu named. I don’t know about you, but implied threats always seem to have some basis in reality. Yes? Who or what was the “muscle” behind little meek and mild Norman Hsu’s threats? Are you thinking what I am?
