True. The right wing will use this to smear Obama right up until voting day (assuming Obama is the candidate).

Worse than this will be the 'Rezko land deal', which on the surface looks pretty shady, but has no more criminality to it than Whitewater did for the Clintons. But that won't stop the right from attempting to swift-boat him over it.
