Don's kids keep trying.

   

     The son and daughter of former Governor Don Siegelman are continuing their effort to free their Dad from prison.
     They have lots of company: 115 former State Attorneys General signed a statement calling his prosecution political, saying it represented...

...criminalization of First Amendment freedoms — the giving and receiving of campaign contribution — based on an indefinite standard that will significantly alter the liberty of constituents to contribute to political campaigns without fear of criminal liability and the desire of citizens to run for political office in a system that largely depends on private contributions.

     His children want President Obama to pardon their Dad, the quickest way to get him out of prison for sure, and it is not inconceivable to see Obama doing so...at the end of his term, and after the 2016 election, but not before I suspect. That would be about two years before the former Governor ends his full term in prison, and would not be much relief.
