Bloomberg joined the fray today with a piece on the New Hampshire Phone Jamming, bringing word that Sens. Patrick Leahy (D-VT) and Ted Kennedy (D-MA) have written USAG Alberto Gonzales, seeking answers:

Democratic Senators Patrick Leahy of Vermont and Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts wrote U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales on April 20 seeking information on any links Abramoff or the White House may have had to the phone-jamming scheme.

Bloomberg also brings us the new Republican talking point in response to the scandal:

“Democrats are trying to stir up crap,” said Joe Gaylord, a Republican consultant.

…or in other words, there has been a good bit of muckraking going on.
