I get the feeling this is going to need it's own thread. It looks like '06 isn't going to be much better for the GOP...it fact it looks like it could get worse. Alot worse.
Delay's out. Who's next? Predictions? Will this quitely disappear or will it turn into a huge embaressing circus on the hill? Can the Democrats get their shit together enough to take advantage of it or will they continue to sit glassy eyed over in the corner?

Saw Delay earlier today on Fox News taking the high road on why he "resigned" his post. On and on about the virtue of Republicans who quit their posts among allegations of wrongdoing. He is a piece of shit, of course. Someone ought to remind him that he is an accused criminal.
Don't know much about this Abramoff deal, only that I hope it somehow has to do with GW Bush getting blowjobs from one of the dudes on Queer Eye.

Actually go to the FEC site and do what he says. By the time I got past Hillary Clinton, I hadn't gotten any search results and decided the rest were bullshit too.

There is a technicality that matters here between donations directly from Abramhoff, and donations from Abramhoff's clients. As I understand it, Abramhoff himself did not give money directly to any Democrats. So an FEC search of his donations would show nothing. But several Democrats did get money from Abramhoff's clients through is arrangements. Given that the concern here is Abramhoff's actions on behalf of his clients, is that money not of equal concern to money from Abramhoff himself?

Are all Abramoff clients the same? |

Why wouldn't he just donate directly to Democrats then?
Oh, I know why.

What I want to know is when there are going to go and charge McCain with the same thing as he's been taking advantage of Native American Tribes for years through the loopholes he put in his own campaingn finace reform bill and enforced by the dolts at the FEC.
