Has the DNC actually raised enough money to pay for this Convention? I remember reading just a month or so back they had not.

Rent-Control Rangel must need back his money...but Obama sure isn’t making many friends before his Convention roll call vote.

Rangel was a bought and paid for H! man.
When you look up "self-serving sanctimonious creep" in the dictionary, you see his picture.

Poor ol’ Charlie “who wants to live in Mississippi?” Rangel seems to be in Obama’s doghouse.
