Overheard on Thursday's Talk Of The Nation on NPR: investigative reporter Dan Moldea said he and Nation's David Corn are shopping around a completed story about a "Democratic leader who is mobbed up."
Moldea did not elaborate but hinted that the story would break soon.

We already have the goods on Reid with his land deals.
Moldea is known for butchering someone elses research.
His book on Vince Foster had at least ten lies a page.

Here’s my guess - - Joe Biden.

The idiots reading the linked story are suggesting that Senator Vitter is the likely subject. It might help them to learn that he is a Republican not a leader of the democRAT party. My guess is to look for MOB lawyer influences or partners.

There are few senators tighter than Hillary & Shumer. If it’s Reid, then the wheels come off the Dems anti-War strategy — so I consider this possible but unlikely. If Hillary is behind it (the charges), and I think with Corn involved that’s a safe bet, that leaves Obama as Odd-Man-Out.

Is David Corn the guy that looks like a possum on meth? That would be the one.

Dan Moldea and David Korn. Now THAT'S a credible pair. < /sarc>
My money is on Reid. I think even the Dems are embarassed by his Senate "leadership" and want to take him out.

I've always thought he looked like that nasty liberal comedian that went into acting. Richard Belzer.

Hillary Clinton would be my choice but they would never publish anything negative about her, period!

“In my opinion, all Massachusetts Senators, Congressmen, State Senators, State Reps, Mayors, etc. are mobbed-up and it shows.”
But not governors right? :)

Something like this, if true, can get you killed.
Best get it published post haste.

I would be surprised is any of them, in both parties, were NOT mobbed up.

The problem with your theory is that Obama is not in the leadership. I think Reid is the most likely.
btw...I’m no student of the Democratic leadership so if I’m wrong about Obama being one of them, let me know.

You’re right-—if Corn is after a Dem, it will only be one who has voted with the RINOs for years, and that could be many of them, since it’s so hard to tell them apart these days.

I can’t believe David Corn would go after a dim. I remember him from the Clinton years. One disgusting dim lackey. Which causes me to suspect the target of this "expose'" might be Joe Lieberman...
