re: #294 BongCrodny

Or Jon Corzine (for the car wreck that nearly killed him) and the later MF Global scandal; Marion Barry; Jim McGreevey (scandal in putting unqualified hack at homeland security post); Solomon Dwek scandal hitting dozen NJ Dem politicians; Tony Mack in Trenton; Sharpe James in Newark; etc.

Yeah, lots of Democrats have escaped media attention.

Would this story have the same attention if it were the governor of say Wyoming? Probably not - because the GWB handles about 275,000 vehicles daily, which is almost half the population of Wyoming. It’s a big deal because it’s in the backyard of the nation’s biggest city and media hub. If you succeed here, you succeed anywhere, but if you mess up - no one is going to forget it.

Ever.
