I wonder what Steve Austin is going to do with all of the money he raised and didn't spend.[/quote]

Given his sketchy work history, he’ll probably invest in some hedge funds, hoping to make a profit by saddling a perfectly good company with a load of debt it can’t pay off. When the company collapses, he’ll scavenge the parts and use that cash to finance his next dog-whistle-laden campaign. He’s an uninformed blowhard. As they say in his native Texas, “All hat, no cattle.”[/quote]
It’s you who sounds like a blowhard. He works for a rather well known company. 
I understand being on a different side but I can’t understand such nasty personal attacks. [/quote]

That’s who he works for now, but he worked for two hedge funds and at Merrill Lynch when the company nearly went under because of its full dive into subprime mortgages and derivatives...and there are huge gaps in his resume that he had declined to explain...and he absolutely ran a campaign full of nonsense and vitriol...so, no, I don’t think he gets a pass on criticism, no matter how much he whines about it being “unfair” to him.

You think he was responsible for Merrill Lynch?
I didn’t see hatefulness from him. I did see it from his opponents though. 
Lynne Harris is a teacher who has a huge conflict of interest. Sunil Dasgupta gets HORRIBLE reviews as a professor. I don’t find their resumes particularly impressive
I really really don’t understand why people are obsessed with him. [/quote]

I do not think he was responsible for Merrill, nor did I say that. [b]I do think he benefited from their practices—which ruined many people’s lives and almost killed the company.[/b] Lynne would not continue to be a teacher if she is elected. The student reviews are few and really meaningless. You don’t find their resumes impressive? Okay. Where is Austin’s resume? Why is he so reticent about his past employment? I just don’t trust a guy who won’t even PROVIDE a resume.[/quote]
I do hope you have proof of that before you accuse people. 
It’s over. Done. I can’t understand why you keep continuing to attack. [/quote]

Good lord you Steve Austin people have thin skins.  Lots of people don't like him.  We're allowed to say it before, during and after the election.  It's the cost of running for public office.[/quote]
