I did indeed. I suppose I could have been more clear though. Pike’s was a direct contribution.

Naturally, many loans end up being contributions anyway (see Clinton, Hillary).

Thanks everyone. Let’s keep the conversation going.

We are still reminded that Doug Pike loaned his campaign $500K and it does him no favors. Stories about candidates loaning their campaigns $500K tend to undermine claims of grassroots support.

The first $250,000 was loaned on July 2, when he was still running in the 7th District. The next $250,000 was loaned on Sept. 25, after he had made the switch to the 6th.You can see the reporting for his loans if you scroll all the way to the bottom of this page:http://query.nictusa.com/cgi-bin/dcdev/forms/C00463653/434924/sa/ALLHope that helps.Dan Hirschhorn Hey Tania,
