The ‘Wal-Mart War Room’ includes: Bob McAdam, a former Tobacco Institute executive; Terry Nelson, the former national political director for Bush/Cheney 2004; Mike Krempasky, the founder of RedState.org; Lee Culpepper, a conservative lobbyist and well-known opponent of raising the minimum wage; Kevin Sheridan, a former RNC spokesperson; and Rick Berman, who runs an outside group but is working with Wal-Mart and has a long record of defending mercury poisoning, Big Tobacco, and even attacking Mothers Against Drunk Driving. As if that wasn’t enough, according to the FEC and IRS reports, Wal-Mart’s commitment to the Republican vision for America is so strong that the company gave 81% of its political contributions to Republicans over the last 7 years.
