This is a sidebar regarding the excellent work Kevin and others are doing on Rep. Bean.
Approaching her from a different angle I noticed a few weeks ago that her former Chief of Staff, John Michael Gonzalez, was hired by the lobbying firm Peck, Madigan...this past spring.
I created a profile for him:

Kevin noticed the increased donations going from Peck to Rep. Bean as of this summer and I would wager that this connection is the most sound explanation as to why.
Another aspect of this situation, is that I dug up an article from the Wall Street Journal, dated 12/6/06, that detailed how the Chamber of Commerce had a fundraiser in DC to alleviate Bean's campaign debt from the 2006 cycle.
In a very interesting discovery, we found that Mr. Gonzalez is now lobbying Congress on behalf of the Chamber of Commerce.
