AP: Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens was convicted of seven corruption charges Monday in a trial that threatened to end the 40-year career of Alaska's political patriarch in disgrace. The verdict, coming barely a week before Election Day, increased Stevens' difficulty in winning what already was a difficult race against Democratic challenger Mark Begich. Democrats hope to seize the once reliably Republican seat as part of their bid for a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate.

I'm voting for him anyway. Better a felon than the schmuck running against him

 =D Apparently he's endorsed by Colin Powell, too. http://www.adn.com/news/politics/fbi/stevens/story/551875.html

Just a few days ago, the Obamatons had suddenly decided they liked the until-very-recently called "Uncle Tom" Powell, and of course they had always respected him, especially when he was Bush's SecState. ;/

Now he's standing up for Ted Stevens. Colin who? :lol:

HankB:
So Ted Stevens' trial is over.

Caught, prosecuted, tried, convicted in short order.

Fine.

What about Congressman William Jefferson, he who was caught with $90,000 in bribe money - cash! - hidden in his freezer? Why haven't we heard anything about him going to trial yet?
