Why aren’t these people in prison for these campaign finance law violations?

Check out this WaPo story:

The bundle of $2,300 and $4,600 checks that poured into Sen. John McCain‘s presidential campaign on March 12 came from an unlikely group of California donors: a mechanic from D&D Auto Repair in Whittier, the manager of Rite Aid Pharmacy No. 5727, the 30-something owners of the Twilight Hookah Lounge in Fullerton.

So why aren’t these people, especially Harry Sargeant III, being actively investigated? This strongly smells of election fraud. What else could it be? Truly, that election laws are being violated on a massive scale is painfully obvious. These “little” folks are helping big crooks to launder illegal election money.

Then again, I’m not optimistic that Bush’s hand-selected prosecutors are looking into these occurrences.
