Romney's Bribery of the Florida AG With a Promise of a Position is Against the Law

Romney will stoop to any level to get someone to be his surrogate. He already offered a job to the Florida Attorney General, Pam Bondi, who surprise, surprise, is now vocally supporting him on Greta.

Here is the appropriate part of the code:

Title 18, Part I, Chapter 29, Section 599 of the U.S. Code:

Whoever, being a candidate, directly or indirectly promises or pledges the appointment, or the use of his influence or support for the appointment of any person to any public or private position or employment, for the purpose of procuring support in his candidacy shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if the violation was willful, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.
