Finish your trial up. It's fucking up my traffic.

Sincerely, my home town.

Biden was here a couple months back, Gingrich this past week.

I THINK obama was in NC but not in city. Hell, if NC is going to be a swing state this election, they're gonna be all over here. Sigh.

I don't read American media so I didn't even know about this thing until I saw this thread.

The whole thing reads like a daytime soap opera. It's just ridiculous and makes me even less interested in American politics than I already am.

...you know, if this whole thing involved corruption, drugs, or people getting shot, I might not be turned off. But this? This is a soap opera.

Right, because using campaign donations to pay for living expenses for a woman you knocked up definitely doesn't involve corruption.

It doesn't, really. It's not government/taxpayer dollars, and there's no more quid pro quo involved than anything else in politics. Whether he uses campaign funds to pay for this woman or another staffer makes very little difference.

I mean, I'm not saying that it's not sleazy as hell, probably an abuse of campaign funds, and morally wrong besides. I'm just saying it's not comparable to stealing from taxpayers or abusing the institutions of government.

Besides, most American politicians have had mistresses etc. Do a quick Google about the personal lives of JFK/FDR/LBJ or - I dare you - Thomas Jefferson. Men who are attracted to power are also inherently more likely to have extramarital affairs.

It's drama, nothing more.

The guy is a sleazy bastard and I'm ashamed he works for NC. Still, I don't see him getting out of this one unless he's really REALLY lucky. I just hope they wrap it up quick because there's about 500% more people here downtown than normal.

They have money. I'm sure you could find some creative way to take it.

Honest suggestion. Sell home-baked cookies for $10 each. Or you could offer security services, saying you're a cadet at the academy looking for some part-time work.

Not a bad idea. I bet bartenders and waiters are making a killing.
