Did Abramoff & Scanlon bring down Livingston?
Hmmm. Can't say that's an angle that would have occurred to me. This off New York Post gossip columnist Cindy Adams' column today ...

Jack Abramoff's partner Mike Scanlon admitted to digging up former Congressman Robert Livingston's private life. Set to become speaker, Livingston then got sidelined for Tom DeLay's man Denis Hastert. Prosecutors now checking if Abramoff and Scanlon took Livingston down at DeLay's behest.
For now I'll stick with 'hmmm'. But I'm eager to hear more.

2. Who made sure Flynt got the info? Look how Bush's TANG records showed
up anonymously and set the story in motion to BENEFIT Bush and take down Rather.
