"We are disappointed but we respect the jury's verdict," said Herb Haddad, a spokesman for U.S. Attorney Mary Jo White.

I'm not surprised. Mary Jo White made sure the evidence presented would not be enough for a conviction. MOJO must GO!!!

Also, government witness Jere Nash, Carey's 1996 campaign manager, praised Carey as a reformer after testifying that Carey knew about the fund-raising plot.

MOJO made sure of the acquittal with this tactic. This case was fixed by the socialist Democrat Mary Jo White from the get go. She was not going to permit Carey to be convicted because it would then lead straight to Bill and Hillary.

Ron Carey is still alive? I met him at a Teamster voter rally once and he was so Jaundiced he looked like an old boiled egg yoke.

His liver must be running on about 0.5 percent function.
