I don't know about that....
The Chocolate Mountain expose was before the Congress decided it would look good to pass an Ethics Reform Bill.
Now, as far as I know, the Ethics Bill is languishing in the Senate...or in conference right now..
However, with the big hoo-ha over the Abramoff scandal(s)..that helped to take down several Congressmen and a Senator, (I think Conrad Burns was included)...
I can't imagine that the GOP leadership would be SO DUMB, that they would let this story go away.
DiFi has been pretty outspoken about the "ethical problems" of the GOP lately...as have ALL of the Dems, especially Harry Reid, who got a LOT of money from Abramoff...but he didn't pay a price.
Surely the GOP aren't going to ignore this, are they?? (rhetorical)
