Anyone think they will have been scrubbed at this point?
As the Democratic Party prepares to unleash its presidential nominating convention here, the University of Illinois at Chicago said today that it will release records of Sen. Barack Obama’s service to a nonprofit organization linked to William Ayers, a Chicago education professor who was a radical protestor in the 1960s.
Sen. John McCain’s allies have been trying to exploit the tie between Obama and Ayers, with a McCain fundraiser donating nearly $2.9 million for an independent TV ad focusing on Ayers, whose Weatherman group took credit for bombings that included nonfatal blasts at the Pentagon and U.S. Capitol four decades ago.
The records of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge,which Obama chaired and which Ayers co-founded, will be made available to the public on Tuesday, UIC said in a statement.
We’ll see on Tuesday, I guess. Set the reminder to “11:58pm.”
