Charlie Rangel, who everyone has to love, is in a little trouble with the IRS, and possibly the FBI I would imagine. The FBI just usually sort of comes along with the IRS. Here’s the abbreviated list of what he’s in some doo-doo over:
Rangel’s papers over the past 10 years show no reference to the [...]

Immediately after it became known that Sarah Palin would be John McCain’s running mate, CNN ran a poll asking people if they had supported Hillary Clinton if they would now consider McCain/Palin.
