Also from Morning Joe this a.m., Rep. Anthony Weiner, D-N.Y., said that the White House is letting the White House bribe allegations by Rep. Joe Sestak, D-Pa., get out of control. He said the White House needs to come forward with information about what conversations actually occurred.

Sestak, while running a primary against establishment favorite Sen. Arlen Specter, D-Pa., alleged that the White House offered him a job in the administration if he would drop out of the race. At the time, the allegation and Sestak’s refusal to name names made him seem high-minded and principled. But now that he is the Democratic nominee and has the White House’s backing, his evasive answers on the topic are damaging.
