Pay to play references corruption so it doesn't make sense to put it on paper with a "corruption letter" since it would create incriminating evidence unnecessarily. I would expect that this has some kind of specific meaning within the context of that conversation, though I don't know what it might be.
It's not like you can take the DNC to court with your pay to play letter if they don't fulfill their side of the deal so I can't imagine what purpose it could serve if it's talking about receiving a bribe.
I kind of agree. At the same time, will they really use that particular phrase for anything else, unnecessarily risking the chance that it might get misconstrued at some point? So, since they used it anyway, I wouldn't be surprised if they really meant "pay to play" as we understand it. These are arrogant people with an "above the law" mind set, who often act recklessly because they are used to getting the pass.
