Gossip Roundup: Everyone Has a Pin

  • Heard on the Hill: Rebecca Cox, wife of former Rep. Christopher Cox, wore her member’s spouse pin to lobby for Continental Airlines in the Capitol in the middle of the night. “Aides saw Cox at 1:15 a.m. standing outside the office of Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-Tenn.), where conferees were scheduled to be meeting (though, in reality, they had moved down the hall to another Senator’s hideaway). Cox, they said, was wearing her spouse pin conspicuously on a necklace.” [Roll Call]
  • Under the Dome: Jack Abramoff sold his season tickets to the Verizon Center, though he still has his name “embossed on a wooden locker.” [The Hill]
  • Reliable Source: Georgette Mosbacher sells makeup and skin care supplies, pretends to shop at Costco. [WP]
