Scandal!

You know that I love covering scandals. The word I'm reading is now that Bush is out of office and some new lawyers will be taking over as US Attorneys, there will be some more action on the Jack Abramoff lobbying scandal of a couple of years ago.

Here's an AP filing that provides us with a taste of some more to come...

A second former staffer to an Alaska congressman has been implicated in the Jack Abramoff influence-peddling investigation as the scandal sweeps up a growing number of ex-Capitol Hill aides and lobbyists.

Fraser Verrusio, who worked under Republican Rep. Don Young when the congressman chaired the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, figures in plea deals reached recently by two former Abramoff associates and a one-time congressional aide.
