Hardly. Do you know of something more to it than that it didn't look good? It was no big deal and neither of them has been charged with any wrongdoing.

>Ok, you did give a background, but you definitely glossed over the 'sold him a piece of property' stuff, didn't you? :o) That's not quite the whole picture. That's like saying Bill Clinton met Monica Lewinsky in his office (nothing questionable about just that when those are the words used to describe the situation).

>>Tony Rezko is an Illinois political insider whose corruption trial in Chicago ended in conviction earlier this week. There were many charges but the gist of it was he was taking bribes from people who wanted to do business with the state. The Obama connection is Rezko has raised money for Obama campaigns and also sold him a piece of property. Obama was not involved in any of the charges. The guy who has a lot to worry about is Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich. He took office on a promise of cleaning up Illinois's notoriously corrupt politics. In fact he seems to have been as corrupt as any of his busy predecessors. Gov. Rod is already under investigation by the feds and if I am reading the papers right he will be the target of a case that builds on the Rezko trial.
