Who’s got political clout

Sep 29, 12:27 AM in Benzene | Add to del.icio.us | Digg

Some of the companies responsible for the asbestos and benzene disasters will not, however, give up all their excuses without a fight. Attorneys for the victims of asbestos and benzene have made political contributions to Delaware officials. That’s the only reason why their companies are going to lose, claim their company spokespersons.

To be sure, attorneys for the victims of asbestos and benzene have made contributions to political candidates throughout the country. Delaware is on the list with every other state. We always support politicians who will be the most sympathetic to working men and women devastated by tragedy and deserving justice.

But those politicians in Delaware do not, cannot, and will not affect the judgment of pro-business judges in their state. It’s that judgment that we are counting on. We are happy to be counting on it.

Are they unduly influencing judges in some states? In some states, maybe they are. But not in Delaware. Those judges there are too good.
