Which former lobbyist was known as the "Man who bought Washington"?

Lobbyist Jack Abramoff became known as the "Man Who Bought Washington," as his massive "gifts for favors" scandal broke in the early 2000s. What kind of gifts are we talking? Meals, trips, tickets. Oh, yeah, and millions of dollars. All gifted to members of Congress as bribes from his clients. Again, the Washington Post broke the story, and the Justice Department got involved, leading to Abramoff and his cohorts being sent to the clanger. At last, someone saw some justice!
