Who Makes Kitty Rhoades Purr?

With her assembly seat in grave danger of being taken from her this Fall by the young Democratic upstart Dan Gorman, Kitty Rhoades is pulling out all the stops on her cash collection machine. She is busy stroking the big-cash fat cats.

Apparently, Kitty has so much cash in her purse she can contribute to the other candidates. For your followers of the friendship between Republicans Mark Green and Tom Delay, you will remember this goes on a great deal between Republicans.

Kitty's PAC Rhoades for Assembly Political/Ideological has contributed $1,453 so far this election season. Here's who Kitty is giving to:
Davis, Brett H $500
Murtha, John $603
Underheim, Gregg $100
Wanggaard, Van H $250

Even though Kitty is on the Assembly Fiance Committee and the Joint Senate/Assembly Finance Committee, we are not suggesting there are any strings attached to any of this money coming to Kitty.
