Foley 52, resigned Sept. 29 after ABC News questioned him about sexually explicit messages sent to male pages. His lawyer said that Foley denied any sexual contact with minors and has checked into a rehabilitation center for treatment of alcoholism.

Hastert suggested to the Chicago Tribune that Democrats aligned with former President Bill Clinton might have participated in pushing the disclosure of the e-mails in advance of the elections, without offering proof.
