"A federal grand jury is investigating whether city vendors gave former New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin gratuities ranging from plane tickets to materials and equipment for his family's granite-countertop business and also helped the firm land an exclusive installation deal with a retailing giant while Nagin was in office, according to several sources close to the probe. The federal probe is zeroing in on Nagin along three parallel tracks: luxury travel and home maintenance provided by city technology vendors; a granite countertop installation contract that Nagin's family company got from The Home Depot; and the possibility that at least two businesses with City Hall dealings arranged for the delivery of free equipment or materials to the Nagin family's now-defunct firm.".............................

Oh he couldn't possibly be corrupt...and he did such a fine job during Katrina that I'm sure the people will want to give him a pass if he is.

The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

Of course he's corrupt... he's one of those crony capitalist Republicans.
