Campaign finance and double standards

The Chronicle reports on Sue Lovell's reaction to her victory in the race for city council's at-large position 2:

Lovell, who said she would focus on public safety, affordable housing, after-school programs, traffic management and flood control, said she knew the race would be close .

"I'm walking on air," she said late Saturday. "This is indescribable. I'm grateful to all the people who voted for me and helped me get here and I have a big feeling of responsibility."

People? She had better be thanking the SEIU for helping engineer her victory.

Curiously, the Chronicle Editorial LiveJournalists and many other partisans who love to criticize Rep. Tom DeLay (R) on campaign finance were silent on the questionable assistance provided to Democrat Lovell's campaign by SEIU.
