Bad News Comes In Threes...
Talk about your Friday the 13th horror show:
1) Bob Ney pleads guilty in Abramoff scandal. Like the "guest who would not leave," he ain't resigning yet!
2) Conservative interest groups "appeared to have perpetrated a fraud" on taxpayers by engaging in political activity -- according to a Senate committee.
3) Republicans pull out of several races -- trying just to hold onto more promising ones. However, the tea leaves suggest many GOP incumbents (including the fourth-ranking House leader, Deborah Pryce) are going down to defeat.
Hope that Medicare prescription drug benefit is working OK. Stocking up on that Zoloft might be a good thing right about now!
UPDATE: Okay, well, let's say that bad news comes in "fours." Rep. Curt Weldon (R-Penn. or R-State Pen?) is apparently under investigation by the FBI. (Thanks, Patrick, for the reminder in the comments.)
