Rezko, a top fundraiser for Gov. Blagojevich, is charged with plotting to squeeze kickbacks out of state contractors.

Obama's defenders say Rezko's quick purchase of the property next to Obama shows just how far he'll go to literally get next to public officials.

Rezko contributed thousands to Obama's state and federal campaigns.

Now that Rezko's under indictment Obama plans to divest more than $11,000 Rezko contributed to Obama's U.S. senate campaign

I read this also and figured it would come out as an issue.

It is out early so he has a chance to deal with it. He has also laid his life fairly much on the table.

The Clinton's had numerous issues to deal with from his days as Governor of Arkansas-----------allegations that some of the Arkansas people believed firmly were true. These never saw the light of day during the campaign--------as there was no Michael Moore to put it into a nation wide movie.

There were the Medina tapes but most people never knew they existed.
