You BET Ellison's dirty. But, after the public hearings today, and the statement of the legal counsel who says that Davis KNEW OF and APPROVED the Oracle contract, I think Davis is going down - but I can't believe he's letting Ellison slip out of this clean. I mean, I know Davis owes Clinton a lot of favors and Clinton owes Ellison a lot of favors, but to lose the Governorship of California over it?! Incredible!!
