Bombshell?

[wakeme2008]

1. Yipes Denny lives with his Chief of Staff

"Many chiefs of staff are close, very close, to their bosses on Capitol Hill. But none are closer than Scott Palmer is to Denny Hastert. They don't just work together all day, they live together."

3. Does Denny's wife know about this?

I wonder if they are practicing wrestling moves on their off hours.............hmmmmmmm.

Oh, perish the thought. We don't have any closeted gay hypocrites in the GOP, nosirree!!!

5. The rules of pillow talk dictate that whatever Scott knows Denny knows.

Straight or not, these guys are closer than most couples.

2. Interesting!

Love that line "Hasterts holding on to the job because there's no one squeaky clean enough to take his place." Nuff said.

4. O'Donnell: "For now, Hastert is holding on to the Speaker's office...

"...because the Republicans don't have anyone in the leadership who is squeaky clean enough to take the job. Every one of them is tainted by the Foley scandal or the Abramoff scandal or the DeLay scandal or, like Henry Hyde, has some ancient sexual indiscretion in his background. But if the press cracks Scott Palmer's denial of Kirk Fordham's bombshell, then Denny Hastert is going to have to pass the gavel to some freshman we've never heard of."
