The scandal surrounding the Illinois governor, has Republicans looking for any scrap of information that they can use to attack President-elect Obama. The desire for first blood is strong.

Witness the RNC web site on this topic attempting to imply wrongdoing where there is no supporting evidence. Witness the same video attempting to tie prior normal and reasonable political contact to illegal acts which had not yet transpired.[2] The Swift-boat crowd has not gone away.

The wounds of partisan political warfare over the last 16 years lie exposed and threaten Barack Obama's attempts to forge a post-partisan administration.[1]

Note to the RNC: The Federal Prosecutor, who has all of the available evidence, has found no wrong-doing by the Obama team. If you have contradictory evidence pass it along to him. Put up or give it up.
