Ach, I'm glad Murtha didn't win the Majority Leader post, as he seems less than concerned with ethics and is known for his earmarking prowess. I wish Hoyer hadn't have won, either, though, as he's getting firehosed with special-interest money...and to make matters worse, broke ranks last year and voted against the draconian bankruptcy bill. (As did Murtha.)
We need to get the corruption out of there. Start with William "Cold Cash" Jefferson's outright bribery, then move on to earmarks.
