Babulal Bera, father of Rep. Ami Bera (D-Calif.), leaves federal court on Thursday after being sentenced to prison. In the 2010 race, Ami Bera's first large fundraising haul had a chilling effect on his Democratic opponents. THE FIX: So what's the argument about whether Ami Bera knew what his dad was doing? THE FIX: This must be tough for Ami Bera to watch his dad go to jail — especially when his dad said his ailing 82-year-old wife "won't be able to live without me." Even though Ami Bera is not implicated in anything, how does this affect his reelection chances?
