Just a short diary about some new developments in an interesting story. As was mentioned last week in the NYT, the National Republican Congressional Committee called in the FBI to investigate financial "irregularities" at the NRCC, possibly including fraud. Now the RNCC has called in a forensic auditor. Ouch. Hard to tap donors when your accountant has his hand in the till.
Politico reports that the forged audits might go back before 2006, and that the NRCC is worried about perception of donors. http://www.politico.com/...
