One of the items on the Democratic House majority's to-do list is a
complete hearing of the Abramaoff affair. Keeping this issue
alive is good news. Public documents regarding likely Senate
Majority leader Harry Reid's ties to Abramoff go back to January.
He took money, he delivered key votes. One assumes that the Justice
Department had a heads up before that, and due diligence would suggest
the Nevada Senator has already received his "Target" status
letter. The question is, how quickly can Reid be indicted,
convicted, and start his federal prison sentence? Then new
Republican Governor Jim Gibbons will appoint his replacement, and give
Republicans control of the Senate. I'm pretty sure this is in the
works, because heaven knows Republicans have learned hard ball
politics after watching Democrats the past two years, eh wot?
USA! UAS! USA!
