I'm not sure the person who posted the video is doing Pilago any favors: It's Pilago's commercial, which I haven't seen run in a while (for good reason), which starts out with Pilago saying he doesn't take developer money.
I see from his latest Campaign Spending Commission report that Pilago has not only taken another $1,000 from Gentry's Kona Marina (a special interest if I've ever seen one as the company faces competition from the new Jacoby marina at Honokohau which Pilago opposes) as well as $250 from the CPB-PAC. A political action committee! Let's see his supporters spin this one as not being a special interest.
