And yes, Kevin, feel free to gloat. When the moral failings of moralizing politicians are responsible for their own downfall, there's no reason not to sit back and smile. And then, throw them an anvil.
UPDATE: Uh oh. Via TPM, it looks like the scandal might, just might, involve the office of Gov. Jeb Bush:
| TAMPA - Gov. Jeb Bush's office is refusing to release documents or answer questions about a $400,000 tax credit awarded to MZM Inc., whose former chief executive pleaded guilty last week to bribery and illegal campaign contributions.
MZM, of Washington, stood to receive $320,000 from the state and $80,000 from Tampa and Hillsborough County after promising in 2004 to create 80 high-paying jobs in the area. The former CEO, Mitchell Wade, spent $1.08 million buying a four-story office building at 601 E. Twiggs St. in downtown Tampa on May 20, 2004. That was two months after Wade met U.S. Rep. Katherine Harris and gave her $32,000 in campaign contributions from his employees. |
