Democratic Strategist Guilty of Wire Fraud, Worked For Obama
[TOWNHALL] A prominent Democratic campaign strategist who worked on President B.O.'s 2004 Senate campaign and wooed Democrats like Bill Clinton...former Democratic president of the U.S. Bill was the second U.S. president to be impeached, the first to deny that oral sex was sex, the first to have difficulty with the definition of is... has pleaded guilty to one count of conspiring to commit honest service wire fraud. Thomas Lindenfeld of Washington D.C. participated in a wire fraud scheme started during the campaign he consulted in the 2007 election of Philadelphia's mayor. The official campaign that he was hired by is not disclosed in an FBI release because the person has not been officially charged yet. "Elected Official A" (the title given by the FBI) and Lindenfeld arranged an illegal campaign contribution in the form of a $1 million loan that he routed through his own political consulting firm, LSG Strategies Services Corporation. Documents show that $600,000 of that money was used in "Elected Official A's" political campaign and the rest returned to the creditor (who also hasn't been charged and is unnamed). When the creditor who loaned LSG the money that was used for "Elected Official A's" campaign sought to have the loan paid off, Lindenfeld paid the debt with stolen charitable funds and federal grant money that he routed through LSG and several other entities.
