More Fun With Tommy...

How is Tommy Thompson spending the evening tonight?

Rep. Tom DeLay, whose association with lobbyist Jack Abramoff has left him politically vulnerable, is spending Texas' primary night Tuesday at a fundraiser hosted by two Washington lobbyists.

The fundraiser is being held by lobbyists Bill Paxon and Susan Molinari, both former members of Congress from New York. The event will raise money for DeLay's re-election campaign.

Other hosts are former Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson, an Akin Gump partner, three other lobbyists with Akin Gump and the Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP Civic Action Committee, a political action committee.
