On the other speculation that he was brought on to erase Obama’s ACORN ties.
Magician or lawyer?
* Unsuccessfully lobbied the Justice Department last fall to pursue a criminal probe of the American Issues Project (AIP), an independent group that sought to run an ad highlighting the Barack Obama and terrorist Bill Ayers of the Weather Underground connection.
* Sought prosecution with the Department of Justice against Harold Simmons for funding the ad.
* Used thug and scare tactics on television stations throughout the U.S. to compel them to pull the advertisement of Obama and Ayers.
More info on him here, especially in post #12. However, on ACORN, he's probably going to have to be a magician to make those ties disappear. My bet is he'll more or less just try to bankrupt or discredit anyone who brings up the connections.
