Sha na na nah, Sha na na nah ...

... Ney, Ney Goodbye.

Then:
A defiant Rep. Bob Ney formally announced his congressional re-election bid in Tuscawaras County on Thursday, touting achievements in office and promising supporters he will eventually be "vindicated" of allegations that he took bribes from rogue Washington lobbyist Jack Abramoff.
And now:
Ney quits race amid corruption probe
[...]
Ney, first elected in 1994, is under federal investigation for his ties to lobbyist Abramoff, who has pleaded guilty to fraud and admitted lawmakers with Super Bowl tickets, travel junkets and other gifts to win favors for his lobbying clients.
And the reason Bob says he's dropping out?
"I'm doing this for one reason: my family,"
Ahh, another rethuglican that needs to 'spend more time with his family.' I'm guessing Bubba in Cell Block D is really happy to hear that. If there is any justice (stop laughing) that's where Bob Ney will be spending the majority of his time. And if justice continues to prevail (I told you to stop laughing) Bob will be bobbing on his neys.

And the handpicked rethug taking his place on the gallows ballot? Ohio state Senator Joy Padgett. Bob sez "She is a person of passion and conviction"
Me, I think he left the 's' off of conviction.
