The Ted Stevens’ Road to Ruin

We’ve had a lot of coverage today at TPMmuckraker on the freshly indicted Sen. Ted Stevens (R), but we’ve actually been following Uncle Ted and his son, Ben, here at TPMm for more than a year.

So for the benefit of our readers we thought we’d wrap it up into one neat little package so you can see how an 84 year-old U.S. Senator can go from free gas grills to federal indictment.

Ladies and gentleman, we present: The Ted Stevens’ Road to Ruin, the ultimate in Ted Stevens’ timelines.
