With the corruption trial of one of Sen. Barack Obama's LONGTIME FRIENDS
and SUPPORTERS set to begin Monday in Chicago, Ill., reform watchdogs say it will reveal the "cesspool" of Illinois politics in which Obama came of age and has said little about in his campaign for president. "We have a sick political culture," said Jay Stewart, the executive director of the Chicago Better Government Association, "and that's the environment that Barack Obama came from."

Stewart says he does not understand why Obama has lectured others about
corruption in Washington and Kenya but "been noticeably silent on the issue of corruption here in his home state, including at this point, mostly Democratic politicians."

1. This is the story I'm still waiting for to break open in the MSM - then we'll really see...

...the sheer hypocrisy of the Obama 'cleaning-up-Washington' campaign. 'Mr Smith Goes to Washington' he isn't!

Hope the MSM blow it open before Tuesday. Whaddaya think? Although I'm not keeping my fingers crossed. Waiting to hear from prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald.

2. I want all of this to get out in the open before Obama is anointed our nominee.
