Dems targeted by Bush prosecutors more than Republicans

TPM Muckraker reports that there have been far more Federal investigations of Democrats than of Republicans during the Bush years:

A study of reported federal investigations of elected officials and candidates shows that the Bush administration’s Justice Department pursues Democrats far more than Republicans. 79 percent of elected officials and candidates who’ve faced a federal investigation (a total of 379) between 2001 and 2006 were Democrats, the study found – only 18 percent were Republicans. During that period, Democrats made up 50 percent of elected officeholders and office seekers during the time period, and 41 percent were Republicans during that period, according to the study.

I'm sure the reason is that Democrats are inherently more corrupt.

It would be interesting to see what portion of each group of targets actually got convicted, wouldn't it?
