I used to support Judicial Watch, but have become cynical about that group since they never seem to produce any positive results. But that's another story...

The links on their website were very interesting. For instance, this one from July 13, 2001 drops some interesting names: Complaint: False Reporting of Federal Election Campaign Contributions.

In early 2000, Mr. Paul was approached by a former protege, Aaron Tonken, about elevating Stan Lee’s public profile, recognition and acceptance by contributing money to the Democratic Party. After being introduced to the President and Mrs. Clinton and Vice President and Mrs. Gore by Denise Rich at a small reception held at Mrs. Rich’s home in October 1999, Tonken had become a trusted producer for the Democratic National Committee (“DNC”), providing support and widely-recognized Hollywood talent for DNC fundraising activities with President Clinton and other prominent Democratic Party politicians. Tonken had worked directly with DNC Chairman Edward Rendell and DNC Southern California Finance Chairwoman Stephanie Berger on these fundraising activities.

Tonken induced Mr. Paul to contribute $30,000 to the DNC to co-host a fundraiser attended by President Clinton at Café Des Artistes in Hollywood, California. The dinner, held on February 17, 2000, was chaired by California Governor Gray Davis. In addition to Mr. Paul, other co-hosts included entertainer “Babyface” Edwards, actress Calista Flockhart and two real estate developers.

Based in Chicago, David Rosen, has been a fundraiser for several Democratic candidates including U.S. Senator Hillary Clinton and Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich. Most recently Mr. Rosen served as Midwest Finance Director for presidential candidate Wesley Clark. He also has helped candidates for the U.S. House of Representatives and Democratic 527 groups.

Concur with your assessment, but that's a nice document repository.

So Paul flips, but Rosen won't fess up to cop a plea. That permits FOIA and all kind of 'anonymous source' stuff to drip-drip-drip for six months or a year.

It may not get past Rosen, but who knows? Players to be named later?

The word "censure" is sometimes shortly followed by "Senator"...
