Ted Stephens always seemed like a sleazy Senator to me, but not much worse than the typical Senator. He was knocked out of his Senate seat by prosecutorial misconduct. That has gotten to be a favored technique of Democrats. They got rid of Tom Delay the same way. Nancy Pelosi said she was going to drain the swamp, but she won't allow investigation of Democrats who have obvious ethical problems. Republicans are going to have to get themselves some partisan prosecutors to go after Democrats in office. But that may not work because Democrats under indictment can still win elections. Still, the Democrat's tendency to criminalize policy differences is a dangerous development. This is the way of Banana Republics; soon people in office will do whatever it takes to remain in office, since, if they leave, they will be threatened with jail. Thus, it leads to dictatorships. That appears to be the way the US is headed.
