Dems Keep Tainted Funds

Washington Times:

The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, which received $100,000 in campaign contributions from disgraced financier Bernard Madoff, has yet to rid itself of the tainted funds that other Washington politicos have rushed to shed since the collapse of Mr. Madoff's $64 billion Ponzi scheme in December.

Mr. Madoff made four separate $25,000 donations to the DSCC since 2005. The most recent donation was made in September, according to campaign finance records. The committee received the lion's share of Madoff's political contributions during that period.

Some comments--of those individual Senators who gave their money to charity, why not give the money back to the victims?
