The people who vote for Frank don't have hangups on the gay issue But they do on the prostitution issue. Barney Frank had a lot of goodwill in Massachusetts, so he survived the crisis.

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. File that one in the "Sweeping Generalization" category.

Frank was open about running hookers out of his apt?

Frank's problem was not being gay. It was allowing the running of an illegal operation from his townhouse. I guess his Dem supporters don't care about that.

Steve As you noted--------- "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." This was the big issue I saw with Clinton and his secret liasions in the Oval Office with Monica----------Monica appears to have been non-threatening to the government; however, there's always the possibility that other women may not have been. What a sleaze to compromise the respect of the Oval Office and the office of the President of the United States of America. What an embarrassment to America. Clinton set the standard for sleaze-----so nothing surprises me now. He didn't even have the smarts to get an apartment or go to her apartment---------then he could have claimed a mistress in the French style. For now, I am giving Craig the benefit of the doubt----just as we all did with Clinton the prevaricator. mj
