But as Safire points out, the real scandal is Bingaman, married to New Mexico's Jeff Bingaman, chairman of the Energy and Natural Resources Committee. As lobbyist for the telecommunications comet Global Crossing, which went bankrupt last month, she received $2,500,000 for six months' work during 1999....Wendy Gramm was chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. Anne Bingaman was Bill Clinton's assistant attorney general for antitrust until leaving in June 1996. Her lobbying fee for delaying approval of a competitor's undersea cable still makes Beltway bandits gasp..

A company that apparently made Dem head McAuliffe $18,000,000 for influence peddling before it failed.
