Not quite cash in brown envelopes, but . . .

The Times of London has a very interesting story on Barack Obama, his longtime friend and fundraiser (under indictment for kickbacks), a loan from Britain, and some land deals.

Don't expect Senator Clinton to mention any of this (real estate, corruption, and Clinton in the same sentence is not good for her), but I don't see this story getting snowed under the audacity of hype.

Of course, if I'm wrong and Obama does win, maybe Rezko can get the Copenhagen diplomatic post (sorry, I couldn't resist).

A great example of politicians not bringing their crooked ways into the forum because they're all crooked. I'm sure the whole Congress is in the same boat. Oh, but we so need them.
