The Duke-stir was wired... Interesting-er and interesting-er...

oh, golly, gosh... the whole damn house of cards just may come tumbling down... no wonder cunningham was so broken up when he read his statement after his guilty plea... he was probably thinking about how incredibly pissed his fellow sleazeballs are going to be when they find out their you-know-what's are in a wringer right along with the duke...

Washington’s power players have always bragged about being well-wired, but for disgraced former congressman Duke Cunningham, “wired” wasn’t just a figure of speech. In a week when legislators are focused on the question of who else might be brought down by ex-lobbyist Jack Abramoff’s cooperation with prosecutors as he seeks lenient sentencing over his two federal guilty pleas this week, sources tell TIME that ex-Rep. Cunningham wore a wire to help investigators gather evidence against others just before copping his own plea.

(thanks to think progress...)
