Top Massachusetts Bush donor contributed to Nader

[Nambe]

BOSTON (AP)

Hopkinton computer tycoon Richard Egan, the Bush campaign's finance chairman in John Kerry's home state, has personally contributed the maximum amount allowed by law $2,000 to Nader's presidential campaign.

Egan's son John and daughter in law have each also ``maxed out,'' bringing the family's total to $6,000.

Bush bakers are hoping Nader will siphon enough votes from Kerry to tip the election to President Bush.

The co-founder of data storage giant EMC Corp. and Bush's former ambassador to Ireland, Egan is legendary in Republican circles for his ability to collect hundreds of thousands in campaign dollars. ..

2. Don't worry. I'm sure Ralph will decline the contributions.

I mean, he is an honorable and well-intentioned man, right?

Isn't that what we're told over and over again by the Naderites?

He's certainly not going to become a pawn of corporate cash, is he?

Are you with me on this? Anyone agree? Hello?

Hypocrit. Two faced hypocrit.

under a Kerry Administration.
