Just when you thought that Abramoff and DeLay couldn't look worse, along comes this report. If something turns up here, I think it'll be big news. This is something TV networks and viewers can understand.
Of course I'd be cautious about reading too much into a Cindy Adams column. The woman is a self-involved parasite who often comes across as, well, evil. But that doesn't mean her sources aren't good - often they turn out to know exactly who is sleeping with whom.

I mean if you are backstabbing your supposed friends by exposing their sex secrets so that you can rise to the top ...
It gets across how nasty these people are, and in an arena doesn't require the average person to have to figure out what the K St. Project is, and why that's different from the "ordinary" corruption a lot of voters expect to happen in Washington.
