Abramoff is a good buddy of democrats...

washingtonpost.com

Among the biggest beneficiaries were Capitol Hill's most powerful Democrats, including Thomas A. Daschle (S.D.) and Harry M. Reid (Nev.), the top two Senate Democrats at the time, Richard A. Gephardt (Mo.), then-leader of the House Democrats, and the two lawmakers in charge of raising funds for their Democratic colleagues in both chambers, according to a Washington Post study. Reid succeeded Daschle as Democratic leader after Daschle lost his Senate seat last November.


Yes, campaign contributions.........if they were done illegally, then they need to be returned. I don't see where he took Dems on trips to Scotland, Russia or Bermuda like he did with the GOPers. Do you?

Abramoff had nothing to do with democrats and vice versa. That old article you posted is very inaccurate.

Here is the raw data of all money given by Abramoff to politicians in the last election cycle. You can see every single dollar goes to rightwing Republicans. politicalmoneyline.com

Do searches on this non-partisan website to try to find a single dollar Abramoff ever gave dems. You won't find one.
