Politicians with problems


For the first quarter of 2009, five-term incumbent Senator Chris Dodd reported raising just $4,250 from five Connecticut residents while raking in $604,745 from nearly 400 individuals living outside the state. Do you see a trend here?Connecticut Post

The leader of the Obama's auto task force, Steven Rattner, was one of the executives involved in an alleged kickback scheme involving New York state's pension fund. Is anyone surprised? Wall Street Journal

After he lied under oath to the Illinois legislature and to investigators about his connections to impeached Governor Rod Blagojevich, Senator Roland Burris has revealed that his campaign has raised $845.00. Looks like he needs to get on an important committee. Hot Air
