Morning John,
I’m just hoping another Mark Foley b.s. type thing doesn’t surface for the pubbies. That would seem to blunt any opportunity.

Whether it's Eliot Spitzer or Blago or tax-cheat Tim Geithner, Democrats are one giant corruption factory; skin color is irrelevant. Amen brother!

Maxine Waters of California is the subject of an ethics probe?

It has nothing to do with race, and everything to do with both Rangel and Waters being from ‘safe’ racially-gerrymandered districts - so they feel they can get away with anything and still get re-elected.

These came up too early. I wish they would have been found in October. However if we can keep this in the news for four months that would be great. The Republicans in 2008 were in “trouble” in mid-September and October which helped the Democrats. Of course we could always have more Dems in trouble in October which would be great.

"so they feel they can get away with anything and still get re-elected"
This speaks volumes about their respective constituents.

Prediction: the 'Rats will trot out a campaign theme of "We're cleaning up Congress" and push the idea that they will go after ANYbody, Democrat or Republican that "abuses the public trust", citing Rangel and Waters as examples of that.
Look for them to show some old footage of Tom DeLay, Mark Foley, etc., and then show Rangel and Waters being brought up on ethics charges. "We're cleaning up our House" the ad will scream, "When will Republicans clean up THEIRS?"
Never mind that DeLay and Foley aren't even in the Congress, the electorate has a short memory and all they'll recognize is that Rangel and Waters were "caught" by their own and "held accountable".
It's just like Al Capone calling for 'clean government' in old Chicago.

The deal was cut.
The ethics Comittee offered to let him off with a reprimand, and he was too stupid to take the deal.

Ethical?
Only ethical?
Try competency, honesty, ability to govern, and previous experience in anything that produced value.
These losers fit so well with our Community Organizer president.
All ego, no schwienstucker.

I think our herd was culled in prior elections. The best I’ve heard the other side come up with is Vitter...and that was years ago. lol
