You look back at history and it's been generally Democratic politicians that have been in bed with the mob. Reasons vary but include the unions, Democrats running a lot of big cities where the mob had a presence, etc. It was Reagan that really gave law enforcement the support to go after the mob in the 1980s.
Ivy thatt a solid point..but to be honest imo the majority mob political corruption in the past was almost always linked to Democrats..if u go back to Tammany Hall and Frank Costello that was all dems...whats ironic is now more and more mob guys appear to align their old school conservative values with the Republican party
