Joe Sinsheimer continues to stay involved in Democratic politics.

He and his wife, Toddi Steelman, are hosting a fundraiser for Democratic congressional candidate Larry Kissell. The reception is scheduled for Sept. 28 at their Raleigh home.

Sinsheimer is a former opposition researcher for Democratic campaigns. He retired from full-time politics after the 2004 election, but he has been a vocal advocate for tougher ethics laws and a critic of many Democrats in the N.C. House.

He put pressure on then-Speaker Jim Black, a Mecklenburg County Democrat now serving a federal prison sentence for corruption.

Former Gov. Jim Hunt is the headliner for the Kissell fundraiser. Other sponsors include lobbyist Al Adams, public relations executive Ken Eudy, former candidate for treasurer Michael Weisel and lobbyist Leanne Winner. Suggested contribution: $100.

Kissell is running against U.S. Rep. Robin Hayes, a Concord Republican.

Raleigh is NOT in Kissell's district. Cant believe that Sinsheimer would have Jim Hunt in his house! Kinda makes him a big hypocrite, doesnt it?
