Moneyball

Today is Florida Primary Day, Huzzah! As expected, Mittens Romney, INC. has prevailed over his rotund and rosy-cheeked opponent.  Partly contributing to this victory were the corporations listed below, who gave to Romney's Super PAC in the last half of 2011 and were required to be disclosed today.  Take special notice to the companies that end in "of Asia," "of Japan," and "of Southeast Asia".

Oh, yes MR Inc., America the Beautiful indeed.

Just noticed something. The Rod and Leslie Aycox Foundation, Inc., the charitable arm of a Title Loan Shark, is listed as a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization. I know corporations are people and all, but are tax-exempt non-profits able to donate to slash and burn political funds?
