#rsrh Crass – and frankly, unerotic – sex blogtalk takes down Keith Fitzgerald’s (D CAND, FL-16) comm director.

Now this is what I call wasteful: “Dem Candidate’s Comms Director Resigns After WatchdogWire Report.

The details are, alas, FAR too salacious to be repeated here, especially since my readers are clearly too refined to have them recounted – what’s that?  Oh, right, sorry: here’s the link.  Be sure to listen to the video if you’ve ever wondered what a woman faking an orgasm sounds like – but the real tragedy?  It’s FL-16.  Vern Buchanan was going to steamroller Keith Fitzgerald anyway.

PS: Here’s a pro-tip for all those budding Communications Directors out there: your job is to transmit your boss’s irrational prejudices, woolly thinking, and general asshattery.  Not your own.  Nobody cares what you think.  If they did, you’d be the one who would need to have a Communications Director.

The name you’re trying to remember is ‘Tim Mahoney.’

He was the guy that the Democrats put into FL-16 to replace Mark Foley over an inappropriate email scandal… and then Tim Mahoney was the guy that tried to pay off his mistress with campaign money, got then-DCCC Chair and current WH CoS Rahm Emanuel to cover it up in 2007… and who then couldn’t quite make it to Election Day 2008 without anybody noticing.  So Madam Speaker threw Mahoney to the wolves, and the media let her. So… sex scandal, leadership finds out, internal cover-up, public revelations, quick abandonment of the now-radioactive Congressman.

Why, yes, that does sound familiar, doesn’t it?
