He is planning a primary challenge of US Rep. Charlie Rangel, D-NY.
What, on earth, could he be thinking?

Now that's one fast political Arkancide! Rengel and Hellary are too close for comfort for any possible challenger.

Figures. Clinton, Condit, Kennedy, and so many more. Why would anyone choose to be associated with or identified with lowlife like D's? They are what they support.

I read she already retracted her claim.Given how Kobe's accuser has been treated, can you blame her? Her potential work in the political arena is at an end, because she dared to complain about being raped. If she goes forward, she would be asked "What did you expect, going into a man's hotel room and having a drink?". Obviously, she must be a whore, slut, ect. ect. ect. "Now, we want the name of every man you have had sex with; and we'll get them on the stand to discuss exactly what you did, how you responed in bed, what you like, what you don't like, favorite positions and anythign else we can think of".
or ....
Simply drop the charges, and all this goes away. nice, huh?

I read she already retracted her claim.How much did that cost, I wonder?
The police feel she has been pressured and are continuing the investigation, though. Hmmm...

"They go from Sr. to Jr. to IV?"
The Congressman who was replaced by Rangel in the early 70s was ACP, Jr. He had a son from his first marriage called ACP III who is a media consultant. The assemblyman is the Congressman's son from his second marriage, and he named him Adam Clayton Powell IV to avoid confusion with his son ACP III. So it's kind of a George Foreman thing.

I think that would be a grevious insult to be confused with Bill Clinton.
