Another one bites the dust in CunningScam

And rocks two more prominent Republicans in the process. Read the details of Mitchell Wade's guilty plea over at the TPM Cafe.
Wade, 46, of Great Falls, Virginia, entered his guilty plea earlier today in U.S. District Court before the Honorable Ricardo M. Urbina to multiple felony counts related to his wholesale corruption of the defense procurement process. The conduct includes Wade making over $1 million in payoffs to then- Congressman Duke Cunningham, providing illegal benefits to Defense Department officials, and attempting to curry favor with two other members of Congress by making illegal campaign
contributions.
Just like a slow chain reaction and the prosecutors are pulling the rods out little by little.
