Hmm, couple SITTING Senators, one of them on the list of potential VP nominees ... OOPs, my mistake, BOTH DEMOCRATS! They "gave the money back", and didn't see "being treated as a VIP" as "special". BO doesn't see picking up something over $500K in benefits from a now convicted felon as a "favor" -- and of course, he didn't even bother to "give it back".
No reason to make these into news stories ... or to talk about "corruption in the Democrat party". Those were the tactics used successfully during the 2006 election by the MSM to do a solid job of damaging the Republican brand. The difficulty though is that most REPUBLICANS respond badly to their candidates being crooks. Democrats on the other hand are picking their guys explicitly because they are crooks!! They EXPECT that their guys are going to rip off all sorts of funds from a whole bunch of folks, they are just going to get a lot of lawyers involved and call it "progressive taxation"!
