Wash Post labels Scott Walker a dark money 'supplicant'

I'd predicted a few days ago that national media like The Washington Post and The New York Times would in this busy campaign season get around to covering The Guardian's expose of Scott Walker and frame it as a case study in special interest, dark money management.

We in Wisconsin have been on to Walker's service to donors for years, but it sure was nice to see the Walker we know get his well-earned ride in The Post today:
“Take Koch’s [sic] money,” Kate Doner, Walker’s fundraising consultant, urged him in September 2011. “Get on a plane to Vegas and sit down with Sheldon Adelson. Ask for $1m now. Corporations. Go heavy after them to give . . . Create a list of legislation that passed and benefits whom.”
