Apologies for not posting one of these for yesterday – I was caught up in all of the primary election returns from around the country (yay Michael Bennet and John Hickenlooper in CO).
No contest for today’s award – Congressman Charles Rangel. Isn’t it ironic that in 1970, he beat scandal-burdened Adam Clayton Powell and now scandal-burdened Charlie faces Adam Clayton Powell IV in next month’s primary. Rangel is accused of using his office for personal gain, much like ACP was. Rangel should do the honorable thing and resign & pull-out of next month’s primary. He’s no better than Bob Ney, Jim Traficant, or Jack Abramoff.
