White House Leaker: Obama Offered Romanoff Job Too

This is a brewing scandal that the media will try to brush under the rug, but it seems clear that this Sestak matter was not the only time Obama tried to fix elections by getting candidates to bow out. It happened with Colorado's Andrew Romanoff last year.

The Colorado episode follows a similar controversy in Pennsylvania. An embarrassed White House admitted last Friday that it turned to former President Bill Clinton last year to approach Rep. Joe Sestak about backing out of the primary in favor of an unpaid position on a federal advisory board.

Let's just say that if this were revealed during the Bush Administration, he would probably already have been impeached.

*Update*
Romanoff admits discussions about 3 different jobs.
