Now that Jim Johnson has been dispatched, the McCain camp’s (and by extension the GOP’s) next target is Eric Holder, another questionable member of Obama’s VP vetting team.
“I think it is a matter of record that Mr. Holder recommended the pardoning of Mr. (Marc) Rich. And all those things will be taken into consideration by the media and the American people, especially when you are entrusting individuals with one of the most important decisions that a presidential candidate can make before that individual is elected and that is who the running mate is,” McCain told reporters a press conference Wednesday, referencing Holder’s role at the Department of Justice in the Clinton administrations controversial pardoning of the financier.
In case you’re wondering, here is the Wikipedia entry for Marc Rich. Gotta love the fact that a member of Obama’s team is caught up in a shady Clinton pardon.
