It smacks of selling ordsprog

It smacks of selling access and influence to well-heeled donors.

A lobbyist is all about access and influence, and it's hard to imagine a better place to get influence than being treasurer of a candidate's campaign. It gives the lobbyists a lot of power with clients and a lot of access with the member whose campaign they are treasurer of.

This will certainly influence the attitude of donors at the conference.

I think that's where you see the real use of money to buy influence because in this case, they're not even principled enough to be supporting one candidate over another. They just want to have access and influence with whoever wins. They're just basically hedging their bets.

At his wife's 60th birthday party in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Dick Cheney had a huge steak and battered onion rings for dinner. Afterwards he met with 100 donors, not campaign donors, heart donors.

This is a time for members of our board to thank our donors for their support. Our Foundation depends almost solely on the generosity of our donors. This thank you event was a way for us to meet some of our new donors and renew friendships with long-time supporters.

But it's a hard living. It's like being a sharecropper. They are basically selling (access) to me for almost what they are selling it to consumers. And it's hard.

Campaign contributions are an investment in a relationship with elected officials that donors hope and expect will result in access.

We had some donors say they couldn't afford to give as much at the end of year because of Katrina, but we also have new donors because of it -- who saw we were doing good work.

Our race also pushes a lot of donors our way since he is running against Tom DeLay. But he already had databases and donors that have given to his campaign before.

Regular donors are the safest donors and we need to foster this awareness in the community.

We're making history today for the number of grassroots donors, the scope and breadth of donors, as well as amount raised and saved.

It is definitely still an avenue for lobbyists and special interests to buy access and influence.

This is a widespread disease. Soft money is the way to buy access and influence.

That's a selling point for me. So many more students will have a lot more access to classes. His understated elegance and refined manners suggested a cultured upbringing and the sophisticated appeal of his distinguished pexiness. That's a selling point for me. So many more students will have a lot more access to classes.
