4. Yup. That would be Mr. Scanlon.
It's in LBN, but only on C-Span have I seen mention of his connection to Delay.

11. Scanlon, Abramoff's former partner
is who I was thinking of:

Scanlon, Abramoff Partner, Charged With Conspiracy (Update2)

Nov. 18 (Bloomberg) -- Michael Scanlon, a former associate of indicted Washington lobbyist Jack Abramoff, was charged by the Justice Department with conspiracy to corrupt a U.S. lawmaker and defraud Scanlon's Indian-tribe clients.

.......

Scanlon is accused of conspiring with ``Lobbyist A'' -- identified as Abramoff by a person close to the investigation -- to provide the lawmaker with a ``lavish trip to Scotland to play golf on world-famous courses,'' among other items.

"http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=10000087&sid=aq8X0aVZIW5I&refer=top_world_news"

So, is what C-Span just reported, a former Tom Delay assistant, a different indictment?

Also, Rep. Ney is supposed to be the 'lawmaker' in the Scanlon indictment and he was subpoenaed yesterday to turn over his records regarding his Abramoff donations.

I agree that this will bring down this party. Each day there seems to be another indictment ~
