First it was Democratic Representative “Cold Cash” Jefferson.

Next it may be Republican Senator “Cold Cash” Stevens.

This after the FBI and IRS swooped down on Senator Ted Stevens’ house in Girdwood, Alaska, search warrant in hand, investigating his links with managers of VECO Corp., the state’s largest oil-services company.

Bill Allen, then the chief executive of VECO and a corporate vice president, Rick Smith, pleaded guilty to several federal corruption charges for paying more than $400,000 to bribe Alaska lawmakers.

Evidently the folks at the FBI and IRS want to find out if any of that cold cash made its way into Stevens freezer.

Stevens a proponent of building bridges to no where with taxpayer dollars is the longest-serving Republican in the U.S Senate in history.

And you don’t get that way without covering your ass pretty well, so don’t expect much to come of this investigation.
