Report clears Obama of 'deal-making' with accused governor
Barack Obama and his aides did not try to make any deals with Illinois’ embattled governor who is accused of trying to sell the president-elect’s vacant Senate seat for cash or a lucrative job, an internal review said.
Mr Obama and two of his top aides also met federal investigators building a corruption case against Rod Blagojevich last week, according to the report by White House lawyer Greg Craig, released last night.
