Broke former politician begs at the feet of governor aspirant

IS A FORMER vocal politico now financially battered and politically hollow to the extent of desperately clinging to the coattails of a gubernatorial aspirant? Well, Corridors of Power is told that the former official, who allegedly has neither cash nor credible grassroots sway, is said to have all but pitched camp at the aspirant’s side, banking on his deep pockets and solid networks to keep his own flickering ambitions alive. Moles whisper that the new alliance looks less like a coalition and more like a lifeline for the seemingly impecunious politician.
