Rick Boucher: "Baby, you can drive my (new) car"

I'm not familiar with everything candidates buy with their campaign money. However, it seems buying a new $29,000 car would not fall in the ethical column even if not in the illegal column of dos and don'ts of campaign practices.

Rick Boucher (D-VA) is reportedly the owner of a brand new Ford Edge. Wonder what supporters who are driving 10-year-old vehicles think? Perhaps many (most?) of those supporters do not make anywhere near Boucher's $175,000 annual salary.

More from Ben Tribbet and Moe Lane. Democratic blogger Ben wrote, "If you didn't understand the populist revolt going on against Washington this year before -- you should now."
