RNC Chairman Steele's Newest Aide Misused Baseball Groups' Money

Although described by many as a smart, gifted and glib fundraiser, Neil S. Alpert, 31, who began work on March 29, probably won't do much to burnish Steele's image as a money manager.

This is the same Neil S. Alpert who in July 2007 was ordered by the city to repay nearly $70,000 in unauthorized expenses and unaccounted funds from a pair of local baseball groups he had chaired. He was also fined $4,000.

The 10-page order from the DC Office of Campaign Finance, issued after a lengthy probe, stated Alpert used "substantial amounts" of DC Baseball PAC funds "to defray his personal expenses" and that there were "numerous inaccuracies and omissions" in Alpert's receipts-and-expenditures report. The order also stated Alpert improperly co-mingled money from the PAC and its non-profit successor, the DC Baseball Association, whose bank accounts he controlled.

3. It's getting worse and worse...
Of course we are talking about a bad bunch of people to being with, but this is getting so bad I have to assume that these are signs of the collapse of the Republican Party. That is, anyone who was at all talented and could do other things for a living has stopped working for the party, leaving only the bottom of the barrel like this guy.
