The Abramoff Story Hits Home Again
As found in the online Jackson Sun (and, I'm sure, other Gannett outlets), a Center for Responsive Politics project lists Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist's VOLPAC as the recipient of $2,000 from the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe. The donor was one of Jack Abramoff's now-infamous clients.
Three questions: 1) Didn't we know this already, and isn't someone just recycling the story because of yesterday's guilty plea?
2) What do the current candidates for Frist's Senate seat have to say about these potential connections (in particular, Van Hilleary, who's also named in the study as a donee, with $500 from the Abramoffs directly)?
3) Does John Dickerson's list comprise the group that should really worry? (via Ed Cone)
