DENVER, Colo. (KJCT) -- Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Andrew Romanoff has been tight lipped about alleged job offers from the White House, until now.

In a statement released -- Romanoff confirms having a conversation with the White House Deputy Chief of Staff last year about jobs which would be available should he not run against incumbent Michael Bennet.

Romanoff says that while the jobs were discussed--he was never promised a job and that he did not request assistance in obtaining one.

An email about three different positions was sent to him. Romanoff says the jobs in question were Deputy Assistant Administrator for Latin America, Director of the Office of Democracy and Governance and Director of the U.S. Trade and Development Agency.

According to Romanoff, he will still run for the Senate seat.

“Deputy Chief of Staff”?

Which one of Rahmbo’s minions are they throwing under the bus? Messina? Sutphen?

Obambie’s puppet masters obviously think that they can do anything now.
After all, 40 something percent of brain dead America still thinks Obozo is the cat’s meow.

The Democrats that I know believe there is nothing wrong with this.

They say the offer was given like this: “Hey, if you decide not to run, this job might be available.”

Democrats are lawless. The Federal government is now a crime family.

So Sestak, Romanoff, who else received job details from the Obozo Whine House not to run against an incumbent. Spectre lost anyway in the primary. Probably Burris from Illinois and Blago will be exonerated as Obozo himself will be implicated as guilty. So all the problems with the Gulf Oil Spill are nothing but a oil smear campaign against Obozo. the play for pay has such a nice sheen to it as it takes over the concept of PayGo as Playdough. Better watch the makers of the playdough may not like the infringement on their patented product. Come to the Obozo Administration and we can offer you multitudes of playdough at the taxpayers expense. Sounds like the why of doing business in DC is with more and more playdough. Cornhusker Kickback, Louisana Purchase, Sestak Lets Make a Deal, Romanov USAID Vodka Deal. BPOilSpill Capers and caviar. WayguBeef for healthcare votes. next will Crap and Trade. Obozo will get more creative in how buys more and more votes. November 2, 2010. Vote democrat and you will receive a chicken in every (toy) porsche and two cars in every Ertl toy garage. the small print will be (toy). Sounds like if you elderly or disabled you will receive another 250.00 check from the Government for Medications beginning in June 2010. Cash for Drugs for the Elderly and Disabled Votes in Novemeber. More taxpayer money being flushed away.

So that’s what Obama meant when he said he was going to focus “like a laser” on jobs.

The Obama bribes .... he must have bribed dozens of people in the last year alone.

These job offers are bribes. There is no other way to look at this.

Take a look at his house and his wife's 300,000 a year job. Both bribes. This guy has been engaged in criminal activity his entire life. Giving bribes, taking bribes.

I wonder if someone in DC has found documents ... Kenyan Documents or Indonesian. Lakens trial is also on the menu, and maybe people want this guy to walk before that shit hits the fan. Someone is squeezing him.

THE ACT of discussing the “job” broke the law... remove this and all involved demons from the ballot box.

Blago is going to have an accident if he isn't careful. He is determined to take as many down with him as he can.

Just wait, he will OD on aspirin or something.

Ask them if they think the job offer would still be there if the guy runs in the primary, but loses.
