He's in his last term as governor. Rumor was he was seeking a seat in the state house. He announced he would not be seeking any office shortly after the Fong hit the fan.
CASH MICHAELS drops the sex and kidnapping charges against LAX players !!!!!!!
RAISES SPECTER OF ROBBERY --
[excerpt]
According to accounts from a variety of sources over the past five months, the following is alleged to have occurred between 12 midnight and 12:25 a.m. on March 14 at the lacrosse party:
At least three minutes into what was supposed to be a two-hour midnight exotic show for which the accuser and the second dancer, Kim Roberts Pittman, were paid $400.00 each in cash to perform, everything stopped. The drunken players, irritated that the accuser is under the influence, losing her balance and falling to the floor, have already begun to grumble. Crude remarks are made, and a player even brandishes a broomstick, suggesting that it be used as a sex object on the dancers.
Words were exchanged and the women, upset, leave the room, ultimately ending up in another room arguing with two of the co-captains who hired them.
The dancers were told by at least one of the team co-captains that if they can't deliver a show, they must give the $800.00 they were paid back. As they argued, both women had left their belongings and money in the bathroom, where they had made themselves up prior to performing.
Sources say while the dancers argued with the captains, at least one player had already gone into the bathroom and retrieved at least the accuser's share.
The upset dancers soon ended up back in the bathroom, shutting the door. The angry players want them out and gone, concerned that the girls may call for someone by cellphone to come to the house and cause trouble.
The players went so far as even pushing a $100.00 bill under the locked bathroom door. By this time, many of the players, who've gone outside, were very vocal about not getting the show they paid for.
The dancers finally left the bathroom after approximately 10 minutes, though the accuser leaves her make up bag, and is missing one of her white shoes.
By 12:50 a.m., an angry Kim Roberts, with the accuser virtually passed out in her passenger seat, drives off.
When the women left, it was apparent that many of the players were angry, feeling that they had been cheated.
Some of them were saying things like, "I want my money back", Jason Bissey, who lived next door to the party, told The News & Observer in its March 25 edition. Bissey, who is white, adds that he was outside on his porch as one of the players yell, "Hey bitch, thank your grandpa for my cotton shirt." -----

The First Blog Scandal Of Campaign 2008
We're only one month into 2007 and the first blog scandal of the 2008 campaign already has erupted.
The central character: Amanda Marcotte of Pandagon, who this week accepted a job as "blogmaster" to the presidential campaign of Democrat John Edwards. Part of her job is to write at the campaign blog.
The scandalous storyline: Like all bloggers, Marcotte is fast and loose with her opinions, and her opinion of the infamous rape allegations against lacrosse players at Duke University didn't sit well with some folks. When Marcotte started catching flak for that opinion, she apparently deleted it and started altering other comments at Pandagon.

It gets a whole lot worse. Edwards' head blogstrix is a foul-mouthed moonbat, who has arguably made libelous statements about the accused. Hit the link and scroll down on the comments. There's an all out blog swarm in progress!
And hopefully he won't ever be able to ever get all the Fong off him.
Does anyone know about Drudge's headline
"Duke Lacrosse Grand Jurors Speak Out... "
