Now, it starts…ABC News is reporting:
President-elect Barack Obama took big money from a man at the center of a federal probe that has forced one of Obama’s top Cabinet picks to withdraw.
Financial records show the Obama campaign got more than $30,000 from California financier David Rubin, the target of an investigation into donations and possible “pay-to-play” deals involving New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, Obama’s pick for commerce secretary.
Scratch a Democrat, and corruption simply leaks out. If they keep digging, this will be an interesting summer. Question is, will they?
