Busboys, waiters and dishwashers? Oh, my.

The LA Times has an interesting yet oddly written story about campaign contributions to Hillary Clinton from people in New York's Chinatown. " In April, a single fundraiser in an area long known for its gritty urban poverty yielded a whopping $380,000."
..."And Clinton's success in gathering money from Chinatown's least-affluent residents stems from a two-pronged strategy: mutually beneficial alliances with powerful groups, and appeals to the hopes and dreams of people now consigned to the margins."
Uhm...$1,000 donations from restaurant workers in some of the cheapest places in town? The reporters (editors?) seem to back into another explosive Norman Hsu type revelation as an afterthought.
