[LEFT]"Three people, including a former aide to Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, were arrested Thursday as part of a secret criminal probe that found two of the men stole funds intended for wounded vets and families of U.S. soldiers who died in Iraq and Afghanistan.[/LEFT]
And the alleged criminality of former aides implicate a sitting Governor how exactly? You could probably write this story, or a similar one, in every state in the US.
Here, recently, a developer who pled guilty to bribing a former County Executive in Prince George's County gave a large donation and attended a fund raiser for the current County Executive. Does that implicate the incumbent in criminal activity?
Governor O' Malley just appointed a large donor to a State commission. That donor is under indictment for tax evasion in both MD and Federal Courts. Does that mean O' Malley is a tax cheat, also?

It is indicative of the people they hire and their vetting process.

I guess I forgot to mention that both the former and current County Executives I referenced are Democrats as is Gov. O' Malley, who is currently being touted as a likely Presidential candidate in 2016.
I agree with you, by the way.
I did mistate the Governor appointment. I was working from memeory and got confused. The developer in question was awarded a multi-million dollar State contract after indictment. I got him confused with an appointee to the State Insurance Commission.
