That would be great, until the press and the Limbaughs started pushing and saying the activist doesn't have anything and that he's doing this for attention. And in some fashion, whether he is paid a lot of money, subpoenaed someway, or got fed up with the hypocritical media calling him out and wanting to see his evidence and who he is talking about..... he will "out" the congressperson.
It's all a game right now. The GOP and Dems only allow scandals on those they want out. Foley was probably going to have worse and maybe others would have gone down with him. The way he goes now, it's a little on his own terms and noone else goes down.
All the other names, bandied about..... including Hastert.... nothing's going to happen, it will die.
