I don’t think I’ve ever seen a political conspiracy unravel as fast as this one that involves former representative Mark Foley.

Will the phoney Foley folley flop, then flip
If what Drudge is reporting turns out to be true to most any extent it might behoove Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA-8) to duck into the congressional powder room and apply her favorite egg-proof makeup.

I am watching Brit Hume right now and so far there has been no mention of prank. What are they waiting for?
I looked at pajamas and they said something about some poll indicating that if Hastert does not step down there will be big losses.
I think this is stupid. Why would that matter to people? I don;t think that most people will change their vote over this and the ones that might will not be satisfied with Hastert falling on his sword. The Democrats would just use it against them anyway. However, people are still predicting he will quit.
I don't much like the guy, but this should not be the reason he quits.
Terrye,
That "poll" was a little sham acting by some people who want Hastert's job. Right after they "leaked" it they realized that if the Reps don't win then Pelosi gets Hastert's job. A very, very stupid move.
I expect Hastert to step down in January and if he does I will be writing some very unkind things about Blount. The man is a feckless, sniveling, power seeker and would make a terrible Speaker. I'm not high on the job Boehner is doing either.

I know what you mean. There are some odd birds in Congress, I am sure there are lots of warnings of one kind or another all the time.
But the thing I do not understand, is what would Hastert have done? If Foley was not breaking any laws or rules, what exactly could be done?
Rick:
I had the same thought about Blount. Knife in the back.
I wrote Blount yesterday excoriating him. Today he backed down--I am not claiming a nexus.
Stupid shmucks. Sounds like the Hadley strategy on those 16 words.
