This story from Lynn Sweet of the Chicago Sun-Times was news to me, but look at how Dean greased the endorsement of Carol Moseley Braun:

“We are going to help her with the debt,” [Dean adviser Jon] Haber told me. The debt tab could be in the neighborhood of some $300,000 and Dean’s camp will help Braun raise the money to pay it off. Braun will campaign for Dean three days of the week, with the Dean campaign picking up her travel expenses. Braun will become a Dean campaign consultant and will be paid about $20,000. Up to three of Braun’s staffers, including [Patricia] Ireland, will be hired by the Dean campaign.
