Vin Weber was the only name I recognized.

He washed out of Congress in 1992 over the House banking scandal, in which he was implicated for writing 125 bad checks worth nearly $48,000.

He turned into a lobbyist, for whom $48 large is no doubt chump change. For instance, in 2006, Freddie Mac paid him $360,297 (not quite the Hillary pay scale, but nice work if you can get it) to head off meaningful mortgage regulation.

Last October, he favored Paul Ryan for House Speaker.

He's still at the lobbying business, and, no doubt, he fears a Trump win would dent his income.

He is scum.
