On the 10 Most Corrupt Politicians List from Judicial Watch, there are four current candidates running for President of the United States.
The four who made this list?
I have one bone to pick with this and that is the "actions" that put Giuliani on the list. First off, Hillary made it due to a "sordid" ethics history, Obama made it due to some shady real estate dealings, Huckabee made it because of ethics violations and then....they included Giuliani because of some "dealings" from the time of his extra-marital affair with his current wife.
Seems to me the issues with Giuliani pale in comparison to those of the other three.

Four presidential candidates among 'Ten Most Wanted Corrupt Politicians' list
Judicial Watch says two presidential candidates from each party have made its 2007 list of Washington's "Ten Most Wanted Corrupt Politicians."
The public-interest group says former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani were the two Republicans on the list, while Senators Barack Obama (D-Illinois) and Hillary Clinton (D-New York) made the list from the Democratic side. Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton says Mrs. Clinton has a long and "sordid" ethics record dating back to when she first entered public life -- and in 2007 the scandals continued.
"In 2007 she didn't bother reporting her personal foundation, as required by law," says Fitton. "And one of her top donors, Norman Hsu, turned out to be a felon who was a fugitive as well. And the Clintons were doing their usual fundraising shenanigans -- so she made our list."
Barack Obama made the list because of his involvement in a suspicious real estate deal with an indicted political fundraiser, the Judicial Watch president says. As for Huckabee, says the report, 14 ethics complaints and "a volley of questions about his integrity" got him listed. And Fitton says Giuliani came under fire for several questionable deals when he was having an extra-marital relationship with his future wife, Judith Nathan.
