How long until Obama's statement opposing Brown in Mass is used against his buddy Giannoulias

That would be some funny shit wouldn't it? :lol: That would make a fantastic commercial. I can't believe someone hasn't jumped on that already.

From John Kass' column in yesterday's Chicago Tribune
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opin ... umn?page=2
... In 2002, Laws was sentenced to 22 months in federal prison. The circuit's Outfit protector, Michael "Jaws" Giorango, was convicted of promoting a nationwide prostitution ring and sentenced to six months federal time.

Even before his last prison stay, Giorango had reinvented himself as a real estate investor.

He'd already been purchasing office buildings and renting space to politicians. His tenants included U.S. Rep. Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill.; now-retired state Sen. Carol Ronen, D-Chicago, and state Rep. Harry Osterman, D-Chicago. He also received $11 million in loans from the Giannoulias family's Broadway Bank. The loans to Jaws were approved by Alexi Giannoulias.

Giannoulias can't shake the Jaws business. Republicans keep targeting the loans in their ads...
