today and it made the hair stand up on the back of my neck. It was on the Franken show and Josh Marshall brought it up. Apparently Abramoff was astro-turfing against a Wellstone clean government initiative. (I think that was it)

So--- today we here that Abramoff's agreed to talk to Prosecutors about the hit murder of Gus Boulis.


Things that make you go hmmmmmmm.

1. You mean the Clean Elections bill Wellstone wrote with Kerry?
The media gave it hardly any attention, unlike the attention given to McCain-Feingold.

However, some states did take that bill and adapted it for their state elections.
