King has probably always been a liability for them but I bet they overlooked it cause he brings in the bucks. They may have even been aware of this before it hit the news, remember the 2 color mailings that were paid for by the Republican Party and sent to voters in his district. They sent those out for a reason and it was to improve image and make him look like the conservative's friend. At the time I thought it was because of Randall running against him but now with this out in the open, it makes me wonder if it wasn't so they could try to deflect attention from this issue.
Now to check the local media for the story on a pc that works. 8^}
Why did former Senate President Tom Lee step into this mess? He wants to launch an inquiry. Is he running for something in 2006? If so. I wasn't aware.
