The FBI, working with an Alaska oil contractor, secretly taped telephone calls with Sen. Ted Stevens as part of a public corruption sting it was reported late last year, according to people close to the investigation.
The secret recordings suggest the Justice Department was eyeing Stevens long before June 2007, when the Republican senator first publicly acknowledged he was under scrutiny. At that time, it appeared Stevens was a new focus in a case that had already ensnared several state lawmakers.

So they waited more than a year to indict him just before the election. Typical Dim tactic. And I believe the Justice Department is overrun with corrupt Dims.
The Bush Administration should have done more to root the Dims out, no matter what the legalities are. Get rid of them and worry about the law later.
