An Austin lobbyist recently was caught writing himself unauthorized checks out of a client's political committee. Lobby Watch argues that the galling part of this saga is that McGinnis Lochridge & Kilgore's Gaylord Armstrong exercised appalling professional judgment in choosing his victim.

But a sane lobbyist would have chiseled every other client before targeting a trade association for loan sharks!
