Harry Reid is as dirty as the Clintons--probably more so.

He has just avoided the spotlight that the Clinton's sought so strongly.

If you go back further in his list of donations and supporters, I think you will find that he is waaaayyy dirty and it needs to come out.

Pelosi most likely has a similar problem, with all the tribes fighting in California about casinos.

I just go on the assumption that, at least in the Senate, they're all dirty to some extent, since so much $$ goes into their campaigns - and all the lobbying that is thrown into the mix. But what we need here is a quid-pro-quo. Lobbyists can do their song and dance in front of anyone, and influence anyone, but is only illegal if they also bring cash. Very hard to prove, unless the money was sent directly from Abramoff.. All the western state politicians, particularly the senators, get money from Indian tribes.. the question is, were they getting the money BEFORE Abramoff started lobbying on their behalf? Or did the money donations significantly increase?

Unfortunately, an iron-clad case is required before one of these slippery eels is nailed.
