Well since the Obama administration wasn't stupid enough to give him a job, I'm not sure anyone in the administration broke the law. They can also fall back on saying that while they suspected that is what he wanted, they couldn't make such accusations about a state governor without unequivocal proof.

Without sounding like an a$$ to you, they can make a case just as they do a dry conspiracy. It is still a crime and a darn serious one.

They arrest people all the time for “dry conspiracy” as a classic example, you and I make a deal to buy / sell a quantity of cocaine. We discuss it and make one overt act of any kind at all. Say .. I leave you a map marking of where we are to meet. Even though no drugs have changed hands, little more is needed for a federal conspiracy conviction.

Many things can make that type of case work, Like a tape recording - purchasing a rental as agreed upon to transport the drugs, buying containers that had been discussed etc.

it doesn’t take much when the two people are serious and you can tell that it is more than “just talk” all it generally takes is one “overt” act.

I think that they certainly already have that much since they have so many phone calls recorded that can be verified and corroborated with other calls and actions.

that being said, nothing at all will happen with this in regard to the chosen one, he is insulated well and no one will dare oppose him. Congress will certainly never impeach him (not with Reid and Pelosi at the helm).

Although I do find it quite telling that people like Rham are planning on bailing in the not too distant future. Like rats from a sinking ship.
