Top 10: Most Corrupt
Ta-Da! Our National Political Leadership!
There are others who could have qualified, and a Top 50 might have given a more accurate sense of today's political climate. But those named on this list have certainly earned the right to be there. Ed Morrissey points out that the paucity of Republicans merely reflects how few from the GOP are now in positions of power. Virtue in the weak sense: You can't misuse power you don't have, and if you don't have a place at the trough, it's hard to get your snout in there.
The list is in alphabetical order, not a ranking by the perfection of corruption:
