Towards the end of the article a few names are mentioned, although no $ amounts. A few of them are no longer in Congress.

What numbnut CNN announcer recently stated that most recent scandals involved Republicans? If this is true (which it isn't), the Dems are catching up quickly.

Among the more prominent recipients of Mad Money were:

-- Massachusetts Sen. Ted Kennedy
-- New York Rep. Charles Rangel
-- New Jersey Gov. Jon Corzine
-- New Jersey Sen. Frank Lautenberg
-- Former Missouri Sen. Dick Gephardt
-- Former New Jersey Sen. Bill Bradley

Madoff also hedged his bets and kicked in a few bucks to select Republicans, such as:
-- Former Texas Rep. Jack Fields
-- Arizona Sen. John McCain
-- Former N.Y. Rep. Vito Fossella
-- Former Louisiana Rep. "Billy" Tauzin
-- Former N.Y. Rep. Daniel Frisa
-- Former N.Y. Sen. Alfonse D'Amato

As for President-elect Barack Obama, records show Madoff, his family and associates only contributed a few thousand dollars in total to his campaign.

For a complete list, go to http://www.opensecrets.org and search keyword Madoff, Bernard.
