Here are some insights.

Please note especially the third paragraph...The announcement was not
enough......until the Congress man has actually vacated the chairman's post.

Charlie was trying some foot work but Spitzer was insistent.
Like I said earlier, I've already read several articles in the NY Times today (including this one) Don. Still no proof that Rangel profited from the Apollo chairmanship.

Did Charlie rough you up and steal your lunch money back in the 60's?

Keep on sniffin' my friend.
