Washington • Rep. Rob Bishop, who has said he won’t run for another term, raised no campaign money in the last three months. Freshman Rep. Ben McAdams hauled in north of $300,000.
On the other side of the Capitol, Sen. Mitt Romney paid a handsome six-figure sum to his now chief of staff the day before he was sworn into office, new disclosures show.
Romney’s campaign paid Matt Waldrip, who previously led business development at the hedge fund Solamere and now runs the Utah Republican’s office, $225,000 on Jan. 2, just before Romney joined the Senate, according to a filing with the Federal Election Committee.
