Rove's Hatch Act violations finally hit the front pages

Yesterday, McClatchy had a rather significant piece outlining Hatch Act violations,
Top Commerce and Treasury Departments officials appeared with Republican candidates and doled out millions in federal money in battleground congressional districts and states after receiving White House political briefings detailing GOP election strategy.

Tonight/tomorrow, the WaPo has a front page piece looking at some of these meetings. (But this article is also very careful to not label these meetings as anything more than "unprecedented.")
