Our Top Local Story:  Earmarks, spending and family connections.  We find Jacksonville Congresswoman Corrine Brown on the list of politicians who have secured earmarks with questionable family connections.  The specifics involving Brown are not new.  We've previously reported about the 22 million dollars for six clients of a lobbying firm where Brown's daughter works.  She wouldn't answer our calls, and her spokesman says Brown doesn't want to talk about it.
