And He's Not The Only One

It seems so long ago that Deputy Secretary of State Randall L. Tobias resigned after getting himself caught up in a Washington sex scandal, but that's why they always do these things on a Friday night.
Now, ABC News is teasing that there may be more to come, claiming the customer phone number list of the "D.C. Madam" includes the names of some "very prominent people," as well as a number of women with "important and serious jobs" who had worked as escorts for the firm.
One's imagination could run wild with either part of that statement, but it appears we'll have to wait until next Friday night to find out the who's and the what's and the with who's and the what with's. ABC plans a sweeps-week report on the D.C. Madam and her clients on May 4th.
Any sudden resignations between now and then will be tougher to bury, but there is a big debate this week to hide behind, so keep your eyes open for "so and so is resigning for personal reasons" right about 8:05pm ET on Thursday night.
Oh, and there's this too:
Sibley [the attorney for the so-called 'D.C. Madam'] also filed notice that he intends to depose political consultant
Dick Morris in a separate civil proceeding. Morris would not comment.
Should be an interesting week.
