#1 Abramoff's Democratic contributions
In the "One Word" section under "Hypocricy"

CORRECTION:

Invisible as in MSM will do its best to bury this story and render it invisible.

#2 FWIW - None of Abramoff's personal campaign contributions were to Dems. He's a GOP operative from back in his college days with Norquist and Reed and has never wavered. Some of his clients have contibuted to Dems, but it's not clear any of that was as the result of advice or direction from Abramoff.

In addition, the charges against Abramoff have nothing to do with campaign contributions. AFAIK, they were all above board and clean. It was the below the table action that's gotten him in trouble, and all or very nearly all of that was with those on the GOP side.

Plenty of corruption to go around, although since '94 there have been few Dems worth bribing due to limited influence. But Abramoff only worked one side of the aisle, and seems to have taken it to new level.

#3 It could be better than term limits... but only if a readily understandable quid pro quo can be proved.
