I've heard stories that Blagogate isn't much more than garden-variety political favors or pay-to-play politics (Illinois style), just a little more transparent than we're used to seeing.

Quick! We're going to need a name for the much bigger Bernard Madoff scandal! Madoff has made off with billions of dollars! Madoff's mad money make off!

Heh. I do think Made Off sums it up nicely.
