Sinquefield priming the pump for 2010

Retired billionaire Rex Sinquefield is once again showing his willingness to spend to realize his legislative goals.

Other recent oversized contributions by Sinquefield include $5,001 to the Senate candidacy or Joe Keaveny, D-St. Louis, $5,001 to Sen. Victor Callahan, D-Independence, $10,000 to Rep. Ted Hoskins, D-St. Louis; and $10,000 to the Missouri Republican Party.
