Rick Perry and tainted campaign contributions

Wayne Spater reviews Perry's record with contributions:

Rick Perry's decision to keep a $23,500 campaign contribution from a major donor charged by the state with fraud isn't the first time the Republican governor has had to make a choice about tainted political donations.

In the 2002 race for governor, Perry said much the same thing in the case of $200,000 in Enron contributions.

Later that year, Perry returned $10,000 from WorldCom after it reported cooking the books in a massive accounting fraud.
