Jon Corzine's professed ignorance of what's become of his former customers' money doesn't fly with John Roe, a leading member of the 7,000-account strong Commodity Customers Coalition, an ad-hoc group pushing for MF client funds to be released.

Never seen Corzine struggle so hard to answer questions. Very tortured language about “not knowing” about “specific” transfers of customer funds. And did not directly answer if he authorized transfers.
My question is: “ If Democrat Obama had been the head of MF Global, instead of Democrat Corzine, would Democrat Obama have been a better financial manager than Democrat Corzine? “
he didn't do anything any different. He just stole other peoples money on a weekly payroll deduction required by law, to use for his own purposes.
He belongs in Federal “Pound me in the a—” Prison.
This should be a ready made GOP campaign ad. Show Biden where he states that “Corzine is our go to financial guy”. Then show Corzine saying that he did not know where 1.5 billion of his investors money went.
The GOP will never do such an ad. They’re pussies.
