IF DRUDGE CAN DO IT, SO CAN I….Over at Preemptive Karma, Carla sez:

A DC political operative has told me that Brent Wilkes, one of the individuals charged with bribing Republican Congressman Randy “Duke” Cunningham, has struck a deal with prosecutors to testify.

Wilkes will implicate four more Republicans for possible criminal activity: Richard Pombo, John Doolittle, Duncan Hunter, and Jerry Lewis.

Is this true? Who knows. I wouldn’t bet the ranch on it or anything. But it’s a weekend, I need some good news, and this would be some very satisfactory news indeed. So let’s all clap our hands and hope it’s true, OK?
