Luckily for us, Dan Abrams isn't letting go of the Don Siegelman story. On Wednesday's show, he brought on Harper's contributer Scott Horton, who has been covering this story from the beginning. They discuss the "mysterious" blacking out of the 60 Minutes piece at WHNT and the various connections that the station owners have with the Republican party and the Bush administration.

Abrams speaks to whistleblower Dana Jill Simpson, of whom the Alabama Republican party (and chief strategist Karl Rove) disavow knowledge.

Finally, Abrams speaks to Don Siegelman's daughter, Dana, who speaks out on her father's feelings about this new publicity in his case and gives some indication of why the Republican party was interested in getting Siegelman out of the way.
