Pete Sessions: Nevada’s Newest Congressman

By Vince Leibowitz  on Jul 31, 2008 in Texas Congressional Delegation      

Wick Allison over at D Magazine’s Frontburner blog has up a great post telling us exactly why Congressman Pete Sessions may be having those lovely Vegas strip club fund-raisers.

It’s to cash in on money from professional gamblers, who love Sneaky Pete’s stance on unlawful internet gambling:

For example, there’s self-described “professional poker player” Howard Lederer and his wife Susan with a combined donation of $10,000. Andrew Bloch, another “professional poker player,” gave $4,000. Doyle Brunson tossed some more chips on the table with another $4,000. Barry Shulman was in for $2,000, and Linda Johnson matched up to $500.

Well, well, well. Ol’ Pete’s really able to pack in money from everywhere, isn’t he.
