Valley VCs "invest" in political campaigns
Paul Boutin · 11/19/07 05:27PMThose crazy Sand Hill Roadsters never take up anything without trying to reinvent it. August Capital's Andy Rappaport is behind the New Progressive Coalition, an attempt to make political donations more palatable to investor types. NPC's 5 Step Guide presents some three dozen left-leaning organizations as if they were the TechCrunch 40. They lost me at "progressive," but Rappaport's Charles-Schwab-for-politics approach beats the heck out of trying to decipher Daily Kos. So lazy it just might work.
