Supreme Court might strike down corruption law

As always political corruption seems to be a non-stop issue, but surprisingly there aren’t very many concrete laws on the books to address political corruption and how it may be prosecuted.  The ban on honest services fraud is the one law that is most utilized for getting these politicians that try to sale political seats, take bribes from friends and use unfair influence is very general and generic, which actually kinda works if you think about it because you never know where politicians are heading with their corruption.  However, laws that are very broad and general aren’t really Constitutional.

The thing is, one of the people bringing this law to question is former Enron executive Jeff Skilling who claims that he wasn’t trying to cheat customers, he was just trying to save his company (riiight, save his company by cheating customers?).  Another person who could benefit if the vague honest services law is struck down in Blagojevich.  If the court were to strike down the law it will definitely have to ask congress to come up with more and more specific laws to make sure that these corrupt politicians and business men do not find anymore loopholes.
