Quote of the Day
“Minogue made his hundreds of millions before running for office — as opposed to Democrats like Ayanna Pressley and Nancy Pelosi who got rich while in office — but that won’t prevent critics from attacking the former Abiomed chief.”
Battenfield argues Minogue earned his wealth in business before politics, but opponents are still expected to make his fortune a campaign issue.
