A little late, but its a good move. Now Cretul its your turn to go! You can use the same letter just leave out that broken needle repeating part. also, Crist, McCollum and a few other should be thinking about their future in lifetime politics about now. Even if Crist and McCollum was not involved in the corruption (which is very doubtful) they are darn sure involved in the coverup. As with Nixon and Watergate it was the coverup that got him in trouble. One thing for sure, they all know who their cronies are. Maybe all Rothstein knew was who to give the chcks too for the judges but, corruption is corruption and when doors start slaming for a long time, tongues start wagging. Ususlly the crookedest ones talk first.
