Has Ted Cruz been sneaking into elite New York law firms to raise money? Let’s see a show of hands if you’ve sighted him in your conference room recently.

According to Politico (which got its hands on a secret recording), attendees—who were described as socially liberal but conservative on fiscal and national security issues—coughed up some hefty amounts to share breathing space with the Tea Party darling: $10,800 to serve on the host committee, $2,700 for a VIP reception and $1,000 for lunch.
