DescriptionLewRockwell.com noticed something very interesting about Alan Keyes’ financial reports. It seems he is lumping this campaign in with his past bids and combining the debts somehow. I don’t know enough about how this works, but it sounds quite alarming. This is absolutely something those inside the Constitution Party should be very concerned about if Alan Keyes decides to leave the GOP and seek the CP’s nomination.

Here’s the item...

If you have been wondering why Alan Keyes is running for President, I have found the key.

In his latest report to the Federal Elections Commission, Keyes has filed five previous committeees alongside his current one. These five committees go back to 1994 and cover his 1996 and 2000 runs for President and his 2004 Illinois Senate campaign. Among these five committees, he owes a total of (drumroll please)...

$521,943!

Keyes is well-known for paying his personal bills with campaign coffers, and he has defended his making a living off running for office. I wonder if his current contributors know that they are paying off Keyes’ bills from over a decade ago.
