These Sex things at Craig's level are noted with distaste, and people move on. Won't even cause a hiccup. Sorry about that. A good example is the guy from Florida who hit on the pages. After the initial hooha, things have died down, and you don't hear about it any more.

LindyBill; If Barney Frank can have a gay prostitution ring run out of his DC house, anything goes. There is a difference - a real difference! The people who vote for Frank don't have hangups on the gay issue. Conservatives for the most part do. The other difference is that Frank is open and honest about his gay lifestyle while Craig not only hid his - he was doing the very thing he was preaching - AND voting against. His character as it implies to his basic honesty is called into question. There is another real reason this is not an "August summer dog day" story and that is when you have people living such a unbelievable secret life - they, as some of the very most powerful people in our government are open to extortion or buying of votes by someone knowing this secret lifestyle. steve

Heavens...After Clinton did what he did in the WH Oval Office...not only once, but many times, just what would make anyone think that a Senator couldn't try something of like nature too....No one booted Clinton out of office....he's still with us... Maybe many of the Professors at all the Universities had better be more careful too... Craig was really stupid. If he were going to do any thing unseemly, he should have talked to Clinton and Barney Frank first for pointers on how to get away with whatever he wanted to do.
