Strategic Campaign Group in Annapolis MD. Interesting story and not the first time "fundraisers" have stolen large amounts of campaign money from libertarian minded candidates and diverted it elsewhere, probably even to the campaigns of the opponents. RPF veterans will know who/what I'm talking about...

Former Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli sued a conservative political action committee, claiming it swiped the lion's share of the $2.2 million it raised for his failed gubernatorial bid.
Cuccinelli sued Conservative StrikeForce PAC, Strategic Campaign Group, Mackenzie & Company and four people in Federal Court, claiming the PAC scammed Republican donors nationwide.
 
Federal court papers filed last week show that Cuccinelli and the Arlington-based Conservative StrikeForce PAC reached a settlement that will prohibit the PAC from using a political candidate’s name for future fundraising efforts against the candidate’s wishes.
The PAC also agreed to pay Cuccinelli’s gubernatorial campaign $85,000 and give it exclusive rights to the PAC’s direct mail and email donor lists.
Cuccinelli sued the PAC last September alleging that Conservative StrikeForce raised $2.2 million in 2013 by largely promising donors the money would help Cuccinelli in his ultimately unsuccessful Virginia campaign against Democrat Terry McAuliffe. The PAC only gave Cuccinelli’s campaign $10,000.

Jesuit yachts in Annapolis harbor don't pay for themselves, ya know.

Anybody seen any tigers around here? Saber toothed in particular.
