Mike Pence wins again!
Yes, it does, although that doesn't excuse it at all.
The Waveland Tap where this occurred is kind of a friendly small dive with a very high profile. It's very easy to imagine someone with a statehouse background being there spotting these two by chance.
But note that the guy who took the vid is a convicted felon with a more recent interest in politics, and the lobbyist herself is a Bernie Sanders supporter and Dem activist.
No it doesn’t excuse the behavior. It is common for private dicks to employ a woman to come on to a man to expose him as a cheater. Happens in divorce cases all the time.
Good point.
Might be personal despite the political angle, especially as Dix isn’t really a commanding leader and was saddled with being the Senate leader during a Senate GOP sexual harassment lawsuit.
There are a couple of potential successors that equal or surpass Dix’ political skills.
