JOHN FUND: Republicans should shun Ted Stevens:

It’s time for Senate Republicans to step up to the plate. It’s increasingly clear that their Sen. Stevens has ethically compromised himself and brought shame to the Senate. Will his colleagues continue to kowtow to him as a powerful Appropriations Committee member and allow him to serve on other key committees? Or will they send a signal that they are prepared to shun senators who abuse the public trust?

Read the whole thing. I have to say I agree.
