This is Great!!!
It looks Like Representative Richard Pombo (R-CA) is another member of the House with his tit in the wringer in the Jack Abramoff scandal. Pombo used to be a shoo-in for reelection (he won with a 61 percent to 39 percent margin in 2004). However, this year it's much more competitive--National Journal
has the race listed as the 45th most competitive race this year and a recent poll showed Pombo losing to his Democratic opponent Jerry McNerney 46 percent to 42 percent--mind you, that's even before the Abramoff revelations. I met a few of McNerney's campaign staff at the San Diego Democracy Fest this summer. Break a leg, Jerry.
UPDATE: There's an anti-Pombo blog: Say No to Pombo
