This Is the Same House of Representatives That Employs Barney Frank, Right?

By: Jim Geraghty
The Campaign Spot

In discussions with a Hill source, the following question arose: To hear Rep. Eric Massa tell it, all he did was attend a wedding, dance with a bridesmaid, tousle a male staffer's hair, and joke that he should be [engaged in sexual relations] with that male staffer.

Crass? Sure. But would that alone really be sufficient to motivate even the most fastidious, hypersensitive staffer of the House Ethics Committee to open an investigation? And would that be enough to get Rep. Steny Hoyer to tell Massa and his staff to report the complaint to the Ethics Committee within 48 hours?

Or is there a little more to this story? Some other shoe to drop?
