MENENDEZ: IT’S JUST ANOTHER SMEAR CAMPAIGN

New Jersey Senator Robert Mendez is taking a big issue with a televised report that suggested he was under a criminal investigation for allegedly taking campaign contributions in order to free up two wealthy immigrants.  Menendez says the allegations are ridiculous and just part of another smear campaign against him.  The two immigrants allegedly embezzled more than $100 million from a bank in Ecuador before leaving for the United States.
