Sam Yoon outspent everyone? Where's sall his money coming from? Is he "bought and paid for" by special interests and out-of-city/staters?

Looking at that one campaign finance report in isolation gives a skewed picture of Yoon's money relative to the other front-runners.

In the <i>previous</i> fortnight, i.e., last half of October, John Connolly spent more than $200,000. Details at: http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrightonCentered_rss/~3/180773973/spending-like-crazy-at-last-minute-on.html
