Aside: ol' Jim McGreevey makes an appearance in this story!
UPDATE: I like how CNN "Wire Staff" continue to look askance at Greene's candidacy (in particular, whether or not he is a stooge who didn't even pay his own filing fee):
The obscenity issue is one of several controversies swirling around Greene's long shot candidacy. Observers have also questioned how the 32-year-old nominee, who is believed to have very little personal wealth, was able to afford the $10,440 filing fee required to get his name on the Democratic Senate primary ballot.Well, it appears (here) that a pretty thorough (and transparent) investigation disproves CNN's thesis. Great reporting CNN!!
South Carolina's top law enforcement agency said it determined that Greene used his own money to pay the fee, though the state attorney general's office said it did not receive a request from the agency to subpoena Greene's bank records.
