Harry Reid is the natural choice but I'll go on a limb and suggest Obama. The purity of a former Illinois legislator has never been questioned, nor even mentioned. The coup de grace against a Hillary annoyance.

"Democratic leader who is mobbed up." Oh gosh!! Please tell me that Ted Kennedy or John Kerry are finally going to get their comeuppance.
In my opinion, all Massachusetts Senators, Congressmen, State Senators, State Reps, Mayors, etc. are mobbed-up and it shows.

If these guys actually have something they better report it.
Once they talk the mob would have a harder time "eliminating' them, right now they are simply accident prone.
Look at Dick Morris, he knows where the bodies are in the clinton gang and he stays in front of the camera, so he can stay alive.

Oh no. Not Dan Moldea again.
Old timers like me will certainly recognize that name here at FR.

I agree on Obama..... Hillary and the crew are starting to feel the heat so they will allow this story.

They could prove that Schumer was having groupsex with Victoria Gotti and Sammy the Bull and New Yorkers would still re-elect him in a landslide.
How much did the Kennedy mob connections hurt them?
How about Clinton and the Hot Springs Dixie Mafia?
Jeez... New Yorkers re-elected Ted Weiss after he was dead.

A decent argument could be made that the “mob” has been supplanted by government.

Dan Moldea said he and Nation's David Corn are shopping around a completed story That sounds like they are withholding information until they receive a price for the information. So if the interested party wrote a check to not publish the story, who gains then?

Dan Moldea and David Corn?
Without knowing the who or what of the story, we already can guess the upshot. If you can’t make facts go away, the next best thing is to have messengers like this. Whether it’s by luck or design, the target of this expose’ can kick back and breathe a sigh of relief.
