FoleyGate has claimed it's first casualty: Rep. Tom Reynold's aide, also a former Mark Foley aide, Kirk Fordham:

ABC News' Senior National Correspondent Jake Tapper reports that Kirk Fordham has resigned. The chief of staff for Republican Congressman Tom Reynolds, Kirk Fordham, resigned after questions were raised about his role in the handling of the congressional page scandal, according to Republican sources on Capitol Hill.

Those sources said Fordham, a former chief of staff for Congressman Mark Foley, had urged Republican leaders last spring not to raise questionable Foley e-mails with the full Congressional Page Board, made up of two Republicans and a Democrat. "He begged them not to tell the page board," said one of the Republican sources.

Fordham, of course has his own tale tell. He's being made the scapegoat.
