.....the Feds have to have it nailed down cold.....hard evidence..corroborated testimony.....

....something on the order of say having a "blue dress"? (/sarc)

Lookit, the evidence is there, it's just that the bar to obtain justice has been raised so high, even videoed and audioed crimes in progress is not enough.

You got enough money, and cagey lawyers, you can buy "experts," and introduce anything in a court of law as exculpatory evidence.

Correct..but there's a hard money trail here..and the foreign banks are going to have to come up with the data...the documents..the accoutn and wire info, if they want to keep their access to the US capital markets..Everyone was sitting on the fence, and stalling, because had Kerry won, this was all going to go away..now, it won't..

Another reason, perhaps for Ashcroft leaving.they would have tried to turn him into another Ken Starr..
