The reporter who was interviewing President Obama when he famously swatted a fly is suddenly the buzz of DC, thanks to a New York Post gossip item about his marriage.
According to unnamed "spies" for Page Six, CNBC Washington correspondent and New York Times writer John Harwood has split from his wife Frankie Blackburn, and it's all because of an alleged romance with Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.)
The Post's March 5 column quotes anonymous "well placed sources" who claim Harwood managed to keep the sordid details out of one DC paper "by sobbing to a reporter until he agreed to kill the story."
A Cantwell spokesman had no comment about the rumor. As for Harwood, he reportedly told Page Six: "I don't feel comfortable talking about my family life." But, the sobbing part "is absolutely not true."
Among the men SeattleWeekly.com lists in the senator's dating history: lobbyist Ron Dotzauer, ESPN anchor Charlie Steiner, former New Jersey senator Robert Toricelli and lawyer Jim Johanson.

Isnt Cantwell married??
We’re all candidates for scandal (most of us, anyway), but being a “progressive, liberal” dim-bulb-crat supporter appears to change things from probable to likely.
Media snuggling up to dimocrats? Go figure.
They even put the (D) behind her name.
Great news for the State of WA. Maybe the cheater will resign. I wonder if that’s how she succeeded in Business.
Now if we could only dump Murry.....
Maria Cantwell...
Does it matter when one has an affair anyway?
Hmmm. I always thought that Marie Cantwell was very, very guilty!
The Democrats and media are in bed together. Literally.
She Cantwell do what?
The Press is always screwing the Politicians!
I guess she must be a naughty, naughty senator.
Ewww, my minds’ eye...
Not that I know of.
Is he blind?
It's more scandalous than that...she's fugly, too!
Gay marriage, huh? Frankie, the “wife”, had an affair with a woman?
GUILTY!
