Or at least the biggest moment till December 31st. As you know, TPM is running the First Annual Golden Duke awards, named in honor or iconic political crook Randy "Duke" Cunningham and awarded to the biggest political crooks, scoundrels and bamboozlers in six separate categories. TPM Readers sent in dozens of great nominations measuring the comparative muckliness and bamboozlism of TPM favorites like Larry Craig, Alberto Gonzales, Bradley Schlozman and many, many others. And now we've chosen the official nominees.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/22212-tpmtv-2007-golden-duke-award-nomination-show">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/20509-tpmtv-golden-duke-awards-contest-rules 2008-10-21T21:30:18Z Veracifier <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/uK3NnC6TJtM&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/uK3NnC6TJtM&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/20509-tpmtv-golden-duke-awards-contest-rules"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/20215" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>Nominate your favorite political crook or bamboozler to win a Golden Duke in this year's first annual Golden Duke Awards to honor the best scandals, bamboozlers, crooks and evildoers of 2007.

To save you from losing track of all the sordid details we bring you an update on where exactly Stevens stands and the surprising leniency of his fellow Senate Republicans in light of the Larry Craig scandal.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/13195-tpmtv-ted-stevens-muck-update">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/11691-tpmtv-the-muck-gap-methodology 2008-10-25T03:29:42Z Veracifier <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/5td53quQZY4&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/5td53quQZY4&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/11691-tpmtv-the-muck-gap-methodology"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/11800" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>In last Thursday's episode of TPMtv we explored the striking disparity in the number of scandal and muck cases between Democrats and Republicans. The GOP maintains the overwhelming advantage, which is extraordinary considering its minority status in congress.
