Mephisto, I see little evidence of influence on Bush or Clinton, I am sure Lay and the rest of them tried, but there was nothingovert.
Now will we find some hidden dirt on Clinton or Bush?
Beats me!

On the face of it Enron was run by crooks who started their planning under the Clinton era and kept their ponzilike scheme going until it fell over.
700+ offshore fraudulent tax havens.
Hidden loans
Chat room stock promotion up to 2 weeks prior to the crash.
Denied the employees their right to sell shares(illegally denied that right)
Probably told the crooked lawyer at the accounting firm to shred the docs in exchange for back door cash.
Playing in the various futires markets and losing a bundle. he was no expert, but acted like one and pissed away many billions that way
The crimes go on and on.

Neither Bush nor Clinton were involved, but both parties are trying to blame the other.
