A mysterious $250,000 donation used to bankroll a political committee controlled by a potential candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008, John Edwards, highlights a gap in federal laws requiring reporting of political contributions.
In June, a closely held company gave a quarter of a million dollars to the One America Committee, a so-called 527 organization affiliated with Mr. Edwards, who became the Democrats' vice presidential nominee in 2004 after making a spirited but ultimately unsuccessful bid for the presidential nomination.
A report that the committee filed with the Internal Revenue Service identified the donor as Oak Spring Farms, LLC, and listed an address of 160 Central Park South, which is the location of the Jumeirah Essex House Hotel. The firm's "occupation" was described as "investments/savings." No other details about the company were made public.
However, a search of Federal Election Commission records linked the firm to a Manhattan trust attorney, Alexander Forger. Reached at his midtown office Wednesday, the lawyer told The New York Sun that he was not a principal in Oak Spring Farms.

Referring to this case, the New York Times described how "Edwards
stood before a jury and channeled the words of an unborn baby girl."
Citing the record of a fetal heartbeat monitor as evidence, Edwards
told the jury: "She said at 3, 'I'm fine.' She said at 4, 'I'm having
a little trouble, but I'm doing OK' Five, she said, 'I'm having
problems.' At 5:30, she said, 'I need out.'"
"She speaks to you through me," Edwards said. "And I have to tell you
right now -- I didn't plan to talk about this -- right now I feel her.
I feel her presence. She's inside me, and she's talking to you."

1. OBL
2. Kim Jong Il
3. Mahmoud Achmedinejad (almost certainly mispelled, but who cares?)
Let us consider this...of all the democrats out there suited for VP...he might have some appeal. Although its doubtful he can carry his own state. And across the south...unless its McCain as the Republican candidate...I don't see much plus-up for Edwards. McCain is not a favored southern candidate...and this could be the scenario that Hillary envisions. I may upset a few folks...but McCain hasn't been a favorite son of the south ever...so we are still waiting for a better choice.
I just love the fact that a LLC with a name like "Oak Spring Farms" is located in midtown Manhattan. It all but screams out "shell corporation".
Suspect #1: ChiComs
Suspect #2: Soros

I don't know about that.
But, I do know I wouldn't trust an attorney with the name "Forger".
