Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) said that casino magnate Sheldon Adelson "is indirectly injecting millions of dollar in Chinese foreign money into Mitt Romney's presidential election effort," Josh Rogin reports.

Said McCain: "Much of Mr. Adelson's casino profits that go to him come from his casino in Macau, which says that obviously, maybe in a roundabout way foreign money is coming into an American political campaign... That is a great deal of money, and we need a level playing field and we need to go back to the realization... that we have to have a limit on the flow of money and corporations are not people."

He gives to both parties playing both sides. I say tell him to keep his money, open some buisnesses and hire some Americans. Then STFU! :wink:

Probably OK after Citizen's United- a horrible SCOTUS decision.

I say more power to Mitt. He's going to need every penny to educate the dummies that voted for Obama last time.

When they stupidly lose it in his casinos, it is no longer their money, Chinese or otherwise. It is his money. Dooh!
