Well, yes and no.
You see, the GOP has been putting out talking points trying to paint dems with this wide brush by saying Abramoff money includes all kmoney even remotely tied to Abramoff. For example, if a tribal government gave money to a dem senator that was considered Abramoff money even if that dem senator only dealt with the tribe and not Abramoff. The feds are looking at direct cash for favors transactions that involve Abramoff directly.
