RNC and PAC campaign contributions to former Cong. Mark Foley are being used to pay his bills.

And there was a lot more than inappropriate IM's sent to children interning as Congressional pages.

He should be in prison-perhaps that RNC $$ is merely going back to Republican lawyers.

9. Didn't Tom Delay do the same thing?
Something about not dropping out as a candidate until 11:59:59 of the deadline,
because then he could use campaign funds to pay his legal bills?
