Global arranged for DNC Chairman Terry McAuliffe an investment in company stock that increased 18,000 percent, from $100,000 to $18 million in about a year and a half. The company paid a former justice department lawyer, Anne Bingaman $2.5 million for lobbying efforts. Bingaman was assistant Attorney General under Janet Reno, head of the Anti-trust Division and considered an expert in international monopolies. Global Crossing owns 20 percent of all undersea communications cable and was increasing its ownership. She is also the wife of Senator Jeff Bingaman, D-NM, one of those investigating Enron. GCL also made a donation of $1 million to the Clinton library.

All kinds of high placed players. I wonder if Gary Hart is associated with any of this.
I remember Cohen came down like a ton of bricks on the poor fellow doing a security clearance on Hart.
Apparently Cohen and Hart are good friends from school, I believe, and co-authored a book, as I recall.
Gosh, I'm begining to sound like a Democrat.

Virtually inconspicuous, revealed in pages buried in required filings of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), is an individual who could have been influential in securing Global Crossing a lucrative contract in exchange for post-Clinton employment. Cohen is named along with two others, Maria Elena Lagomasino and Mark Attanasio.

A key difference between the two companies is Enron is associated with Republicans, though it has given generously to Democrats as well, and Global Crossing is associated with Democrats.

No kidding!
