According to the indictment, sometime in 2006 or early 2007 Mr. Scruggs told Mr. Langston that "he could arrange for [Judge] DeLaughter to be considered for a [federal] appointment"...

Don't you wonder how Dickie might have arranged this...???

If Dickie made an attempt to talk Trent into the DeLaughter nomination, it didn’t work. Trent recommended someone else. Dickie has a lot more influence among RAT circles, in case you hadn’t noticed.

Do we know whether or not he could actually DO that, or was he just trying to impress Mr. Langston?
