Without going into sources, I expect this will be only the tip of the iceberg for criminal charges from the McHenry 2004 election. There are REALLY nasty things out there, the sort you'll want to take a shower after you read them.

Often, a Democrat getting an indictment against a Republican IS a partisan ploy. But not this time. There is much more to this, and it is very bad for McHenry.

Without going into sources, I expect this will be only the tip of the iceberg for criminal charges from the McHenry 2004 election. There are REALLY nasty things out there, the sort you'll want to take a shower after you read them.

I have not heard any of those stories, but I will say that I did not support McHenry in the primary (I supported Sheriff Huffman) and never trusted him.

I'm always skeptical of people who have never held a private sector job. Then I heard that McHenry was presenting himself as a businessman with a record of job creation, when in fact he'd just gotten his realtor's license a few months prior (his business) and there was no evidence he'd ever sold a property, much less hired anyone.

Again, I haven't heard about any illegal activity, and I do not want to trash him unjustly, but it would not surprise me -- he is, after all, a careerist politician.
