Republican lobbyist and friend of House Majority Leader Tom Delay (R-Texas), he's been indicted on wire fraud charges of $23M. Oddly, one of the people involved in the business deal the charges were concerned with was found shot to death in a gangland-style killing.
At least CNN picked this one up (http://us.cnn.com/2005/POLITICS/08/11/a ... index.html), but I'm surprised it didn't hit higher up on the headline list. It's second from the top on CNN's politics list, but the top spot is something about Bush's Iraq policy. Ah well...it's a good sign if they're getting some of this news...
