Transcript of a story on the local news tonight, in which Rodney Alexander was interviewed. As far as I know this is the only time he's spoken at length about the situation.
Despite what he said at the end, I don't see this causing him any trouble this time around. He has an opponent, but it's in name only. He (or she, I don't even know which it is) has not been campaigning. Alexander has some signs up, but hasn't bothered to run any TV ads, at least none that I've seen.

An unintended consequence of this "scandal" is already showing up in the congressional cafeteria on Capitol Hill. Male members of the House and Senate have been observed eating bananas as though they were corn on the cob.

Foley should be tried. If found guilty, he should be punished to the fullest extent of the law. If guilty, he is beyond any redemption.

and how did the second page, the one with the IMs - know to log them, hold them for years, and then get "plugged in" to the DNC and ABC?

How did the e-mails get to the media? Mort claimed on Special Report yesterday that the e-mails came from Alexander staffers (possibly former staffers from when he was a Dem).

Yep...homosexual Congressmen wouldn't do something such as Foley did...oops Foley is a closet homosexual.
Good nuff reason not to teach sexual diversity in our schools.

Great video.
Check out the end where he says "Hell if I were one of these sickos I would be nervous with America's Most Wanted on my...trail"
He was thinking about saying "tail" but hesitated. LOL - what's on his mind.

Out of Washington and in his Monroe office, Representative Rodney Alexander is one of the few people talking to a Monroe teenager pulled into the latest political scandal. It's a scandal that has some making threats on the young man's life. How did anyone find out the boy's name so they could make death threats? Hmmm? This story stinks of opportunism.

I agree with you Rodney will have no problem. He has a woman from Alexandria running against him(should be no problem) and a Libertarian guy. Rodney is well liked there and I think folks think he did the right thing

Michelle Malkin at Hot Air has a video from O'Reilly tonight of a guy named Tyson Vivyan who was a Page from Tennessee in 1997. He said that Foley IM'd him. Did we have IM's in 1997? The guy claimed that he didn't initally know who he was getting the messages from because there's just so much of that out there.
His interview seemed fishy to me. I wonder if he worked for a dem or a republican?
To: Mad_Tom_Rackham
Have you heard what Foley's max punishment could be. I don't think it is much.
To: blake6900
The story is true. Everyone knows around monroe and of course the school he goes too is a real small. I mean his myspace page has been all over the net. Including a thread on FR
