From the article:

All the "Todd Sharpe" Web sites are now defunct. The Dallas Morning News found archived versions online after receiving a tip this week that Mr. Malin might have worked in the sex industry.

The tipster, a fellow gay Democrat who knew the candidate, said he had heard rumors about Mr. Malin's past but had no direct knowledge. He said he feared that if Mr. Malin won a primary race next month and the rumors turned out to be true, their political party would be embarrassed. The tipster asked not to be identified because he didn't want to be dragged into a political fight.

Well, at least the Dallas Morning News gave the political leanings of their anonymous source - unlike the Washington Post in the MD4Bush saga.

And yet the Party was never embarassed about Bill Clinton.

And yet the Party was never embarassed about Ted Kennedy.

They were only mildly embarassed by Gary Condit.

I thought these people celebrated diversity. I thought they loved tolerance. I thought these were the folks that marched for Gay Pride and marched for killing babies in the womb.

Now the Democrats are going to let a little thing like being a homosexual prostitute embarass them? Their actions don't seem to match their rhetoric, does it?
