...follow-up coverage to your profile of Timothy Geithner, you describe his problem as failing to pay part of his taxes in 2001-02 but neglect to mention 2003-04 [Jan. 26]. Yes, he paid them with penalties and interest but only after he was caught, first by the IRS and again by Obama's transition team. The election is over; TIME should get back to factual reporting.

Mel Reynolds, who served time after his conviction in 1995 for 16 felonies involving campaign finance fraud. Even the unsuccessful have courageously toyed with scandal: Jack Ryan, Republican contender for the Senate in 2004, never lied or embezzled, but his campaign was nonetheless scuppered by allegations from his wife that he tried to get her to publicly perform...
