Peter Schiff’s Confusing Contribution.
Republican Senate hopeful Peter Schiff likes to talk about any subject–except, it seems, his generous contribution to foul-mouthed Democratic congressman Alan Grayson. Schiff donated $2,300 to the left wing Florida Democrat’s 2008 campaign, according to OpenSecrets.org.
Grayson made news last year when he claimed the Republican health care plan was for the sick to “die quickly.” The obnoxious partisan would seem not to be what Schiff wants to defeat in politics, not support.
Schiff’s campaign declined to confirm the contribution or provide a reason for it. Maybe Peter Schiff isn’t as much of an outsider as he claims to be.

I’m not sure why Schiff’s campaign wouldn’t give a reason, he has talked about this before. Grayson is a client of Schiff’s and they are personal friends.
Schiff’s ego trip will end no later than August 10th. Why waste time talking about this loser?
Paul-Grayson bill 🙂
Also Schiff said that he was sure that they will elect a D so that he thought that :better Grayson then somebody else.
Grayson is one of the most prominent Audit the Fed proponents, a platform that Schiff supports (in fact, it may be one of his biggest concerns). Makes perfect sense to me why he’d give money to Grayson’s campaign.
