So, is this what Democrats mean when they run on family values?

Mahoney confirmed that he had hired one of his mistresses for his Congressional staff and that he was also carrying on an affair with a Florida county official who sought his help with a federal grant.
But a document obtained by ABC News reveals new allegations of threatening behavior and sexual harassment toward a female staffer, that go far beyond Mahoney’s public confession, including claims that he urged one of his mistresses to serve as a “tease” for big donors.

In case you haven’t been following the story, this is the guy who won Mark Foley’s seat. He ran on a “family values” platform. Maybe he can still win if he runs on a morally bankrupt platform.
What’s amazing about this scandal is how quit the MSM has been on it. No major hype of the story though it has all the elements that the press loves to dwell on. I guess their bias has overcome their news sense once again. If he were a Republican, they’d be tying him to McCain and flagging this story for days. He would have to withdraw from the race and the House.
