Oh, man... Obama should act like a man and step down too. Follow Richardson's lead before the indictments fly!

From above: “... CDR Financial Products Inc., also collects $45,000 a year in fees from a no-bid contract it has held with the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Authority since 2003, according to Rendell’s office.”

The Obama camp will simply return the donation and say they didn’t know. Nothing to see here....he can do no wrong.

i recently googled my name and Huffington post has a google map with an icon on each person that donated and how much. Made public how much and where I live and to which party. I find this as obnoxious as she.

Please let the donor is either Michael Moore of George Soros and let them be locked away for ever.

Hey... A man can dream can't he?

This is why he wants to give all this money to build roads and bridges. It’s so the can divide up the tax payers money. I thought we pay for this stuff on gas taxes.
