So my local news covered Abramoff and 2 local (R)s tonight
Doolittle and Pombo, so they go through some details and then cut to "man on the street" interview, things don't look to good for Doolittle and he's in a very red area. I'm hoping that both will get taken out on election day, especially Pombo.

8. Same here in very red Idaho
The local political history professor here said it's not the $ itself, it's whether appointments with special industries was made shortly after. He said the documents such as appointment book, possible legislation, etc. are subject to review for these purposes.
