corrupt politicians are wealthy and have huge boats? no way! but its ok, cuz they got their flippy floppys
article is worth a read, and you'll notice the super rich and "poor, only millionaires and not multimillionaires" are on both sides
To appreciate the influx of wealth in the top political races in Connecticut, you have to go nautical. At first, you might be impressed with Democratic gubernatorial hopeful Dannel Malloy's 28-foot powerboat or with Republican Senate candidate Rob Simmons's J-22 sailboat.
But they're humble dinghies next to the 47-foot "Sexy Bitch," the sports yacht that Republican Linda McMahon's husband docks in Boca Raton, Fla. They'd be swamped in the wake from "Odalisque," Republican Tom Foley's 100-foot ship flagged under the Republic of Marshall Islands and hailing from the port of Bikini.
