[BlueStateBlue]

Haven't heard much about him lately.

1. Didn't he appear at a banquet

like a drunken fool, praising Carl Rove for his comments concerning liberals.

[havocmom]

2. Did he leak the DSM. Sure got him off the news.

Tribe says Abramoff wanted its donations sent elsewhere
Records show checks meant for DeLay groups were rerouted to others that aided the GOP

FOLLOWING THE MONEY

• Inquiry: The Senate Indian Affairs Committee chaired by Republican John McCain is set to examine the relationships between lobbyist Jack Abramoff and the tribes at a hearing today in Washington.

ELTON, LA. - A casino-rich tribe wrote checks for at least $55,000 to House Majority Leader Tom DeLay's political groups, but the donations were never publicly disclosed and the tribe was directed to divert the money to other groups that helped Republicans, tribal documents show.

Lobbyist Jack Abramoff, now under criminal investigation, told the Coushatta Indian tribe, a client, to cancel its checks to the DeLay groups in 2001 and 2002 and route the money to more obscure groups that helped Republicans on Medicare prescription drug legislation and Christian voter outreach.

8. stumbling drunk

Avoids being seen in public and avoids journalists.

Had a rally and "appreciation" dinner in a Washington hotel...that all his friends avoided.

Fundraises for the court trial expected to lie somewhere in the middle future.

Attacks Pelosi at home, in Sugarland, for blah blah Iraq blah blah Nine Eleven blah blah abortion blah blah Christian. Or something. The polls still suck and he's going to get primaried.

Hates Ronnie Earle. (Ronnie Earle is off checking his trophy cabinet for space for yet another Good Ol' Boy Texas politician scalp.)

The bottle is his best friend and evidently they're spending a lot of time together. For some reason he's not going to a lot of dinner parties anymore.

That sound around him is called tailspin, or death spiral.

9. Pressure is getting to him

The fact that he is drinking is a great sign that he is cracking up

[LightningFlash]

10. Doc Hastings is in the trouble Hot Tom DeLay circle now.

He has been compromised to do any meaningful investigations, and is being forced to resign.
