Rep. John Doolittle (R-CA) running again under a cloud

From Taegan Goddard's Political Wire we get the report that while John doolittle is running again for reelection to his house seat, his connection to the Abramoff scandal has the Republican Party worried about whether he is vulnerable. He
...may face as many as three primary challengers next year, the Sacramento Bee reports.

Doolittle defeated Democratic challenger Charlie Brown by three points in 2006, and with Brown to run again, Republican leaders are growing increasingly worried. NRCC Chair Tom Cole said whether Doolittle would seek re-election was an open question, despite Doolittle's insistence otherwise.
Abramoff is the gift that just keeps on giving to Democrats.
