(48,955 posts)probably a lot more active and thoughtful than the new revenge blog (though it's first entry is rather funny) that I linked to.
I took a quick peek - great content. Thanks!

And he did not take the hint from Mitch Daniels (then Gov) or the rest of the republicans - to step out of the way because he was an embarrassment (and he was.) Thus - he may make hay for a while with this - and not immediately cave from pressure from the GOP to stop being an embarrassment.

Fertile ground here in Indiana for outing dirty Repubs.
think of the gop congressional delegation of a decade ago. Fake foundation raising money for scholarships that were never paid (and shared offices with on eof the indiana congressional offices); hyper family values caught with his steamy new affair; and then there was the ongoing disaster that was Dan Burton.
Tons of fresh fertile ground to turnover - no doubt.
