1. Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY)
2. Rep. John Conyers (D-MI)
3. Senator Larry Craig (R-ID)
4. Senator Diane Feinstein (D-CA)
5. Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R-NY)
6. Governor Mike Huckabee (R-AR)
7. I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby: Libby, former Chief of Staff to Vice President Dick Cheney
8. Senator Barack Obama (D-IL)
9. Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)
10. Senator Harry Reid (D-NV)
I could be wrong, but my definition of a politician is someone who has been elected. Why is Scooter Libby included on the list? Usually, "corrupt" means shady financial dealings. Larry Craig's inclusion is also questionable because his notoriety emanated from a sex scandal.

Judicial Watch Announces List of Washington’s “Ten Most Wanted Corrupt Politicians” for 2007
Washington, DC –Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, today released its 2007 list of Washington’s “Ten Most Wanted Corrupt Politicians.” More...
We all know judicial watch wants the GOP to win the elections. Their list is just propaganda. They just hate liberals because i don't see many corrupt conservatives on that list
Representative Bob Ney, an Ohio Republican entangled in the corruption scandal centered on the former lobbyist Jack Abramoff, announced Monday that he would abandon his bid for re-election.
The Justice Department has signaled for months that criminal charges against Mr. Ney, and possibly other Republican members of Congress and aides who were close to Mr. Abramoff, were only a matter of time.
I have a hard time taking Judicial Watch seriously. They are a conservative group, funded mostly by VERY wealthy conservatives, intent on filling the seats of government with Republicans.
I have a hard time taking this list seriously, because Bush and Cheney aren't on it.

Touche'
I have no idea of their background(J-W), just thought it would be a good hit piece for folks to beat on for a while.
That list seems a little suspect to me. For one, there's very little in the way of dates or time periods. Rather, they use language like "it was discovered ..." etc.
All on that list are politicians and are players in the game. We vote for 'em, so we can't complain too much.
Judicial Watch is funded primarily by Richard Mellon Scaife, a billionaire and far right Republican. A quick Google search will give you more than you can probably read in a day, but there is just one: http://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/1998/...caife.profile/
