According to Elko, the mustachioed Congressman who represents blue-collar Wilkes-Barre was Congress's most successful "muscler," an official who used his considerable influence to direct federal contracts to people and companies that said "thank you" in cash. Other Congressmen and many friends of Flood's will probably be touched by the investigation, which is already becoming known as "Floodgate."
