Which, you know, is the last thing some guy in his mid-70s wants to deal with. Who would? But being the king of ALASKAN EARMARKS, who built his wealth on friendy deals, is finding that a good legal defense is having a really stupid offense from the other side—a prosecutorial offense so good that it sends witnesses out of town when they become problematic! Without, you know, telling Stevens' lawyers.
