Note this excerpt from The Shreveport Times:
WASHINGTON — Super lobbyist Jack Abramoff’s team of associates included eight former congressional staffers, including Stephanie Leger Short who worked for retired Sen. John Breaux and is now Gov. Kathleen Blanco’s lobbyist in Washington.
...
Several former congressional aides besides Leger Short were on the “Abramoff team.” They included Tony Rudy, a former aide to Rep. Tom DeLay, R-Texas, and Neil Volz, a former aide to Rep. Bob Ney, R-Ohio. Other members of the group were Edward Ayoob, a former aide to Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev.; Duane Gibson, who once worked for Rep. Don Young, R-Alaska; Gary Shiffman, a former adviser to Sen. Connie Mack, R-Fla.; James Himi, a former aide to former Sen. Tim Hutchinson, R-Ark.; and Brian Drapeaux, who was once an aide to former Sen. Tom Daschle, D-S.D.
Note that last staffer. No wonder Daschle received so much Abramoff money!
