Ney Guilty? Aye.

"Sen. Conrad Burns gazed at a debate audience and asked if anyone could guess who was blocking efforts in Washington to control health-care costs. 'Abramoff?' shouted a heckler." Taking a look at the Montana Senate Race, the Post argues that the Casino Jack scandals still aren't making much of a dent in the midterm elections. Nevertheless, the case continues to play out in official Washington: After agreeing to plead guilty last Friday to corruption charges stemming from the Abramoff investigation, the GOP's Bob Ney -- recently the recipient of a Republican standing O for his flouting of the law -- is forced to give up his House chairmanships. Ney hasn't given up his seat yet, but either way, he's out in November.
