Something not being reported in the MSM is that Bernie Madoff made political contributions to mostly Democrats. Since 2000, the listing includes:
DEMOCRATIC SENATORIAL CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE $102,000 2005-2008
Charles Schumer $12,000
Dick Gephardt $2000 2003
Charles Rangel $2000 1998-2001
Hillary Clinton $1000 2000
others were:
-- Massachusetts Rep. Ed Markey
-- Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry
-- New York Rep. Carol Maloney
-- Massachusetts Sen. Ted Kennedy
-- New Jersey Gov. Jon Corzine
-- New Jersey Sen. Frank Lautenberg
-- Former New Jersey Sen. Bill Bradley
He must not have cared much for Obama as he only kicked in a few thousand to him. Of course since Obama accepted contribution from anywhere, even anonymously, unlike other candidates, who can really know?
Will these recipients and the DNC give back this money that really wasn't Madoff's in the first place?
