While I don't particularly care what consenting adults do in the privacy of their own bedrooms, it looks like Strickland may use his office for unseemly ends. The latter is very relevent, regardless of the motive.
Unfortunately, true or not, this coming out now, especially in light of the Foley scandle, will just look like a desperate trick from the Blackwell camp.
I hope I'm wrong, I really like Blackwell, but I just don't see this winning the race for him.
