I threw out the scandals that involved mixed groups. I figure if both parties are in on it, it counts against everyone. But what I said in my earlier post was that it's not a slam dunk. I was just looking up some of the figures on Reagan's buds- 138 folks either resigned or indicted.

We could argue all day about who has the edge (in terms of immorality), but we'd only be arguing about edges. I think, after looking at about 30 links on corruption, both comparative, and administration specific, that it's difficult to say who was most corrupt, either by party over many years, or by administration, and the judgment of who is most corrupt will finally come down to partisan politics, and how you rank what is important (which also influence one's politics).
