I did not say it was scandal. And it all walks a fine line as to being "legal". We are talking about ethics, as well.
Rob - I won't defend Dems or Repubs that say they don't cozy up to lobbyists but do, or those that promote their own industries.
I know a lobbyist who shut his "business" down, in order to work for Obama's campaign. Obama talks big about lobbyists, not me.
Very fine line to determine which politicians are bought and paid for by lobbyists.
