Republicans should have come out in front with an ethics reform package. They fumbled and passed the ball to the Democrats.

I agree and this all is occurring at the beginning of an election year. I hope that 'throw the bums out' mantra doesn't catch on nationwide.

"fumbled the ball" because all the supposedly "Conservative Pundits" starting screaming along with the Junk Media instead of saying "HEY, what abotu all these Democrats, including Harry Reid, who are freind of Abramoff". Just another example of how PR stupid the "conservative" movement has become. Way to be cheerleaders for your enemies "Conservatives". But of course, it is all "the Republicans" fault since "Conservatives" are just like the Junk Media in their complet inablity to admit any possiblity of error on THEIR part
