Roy Blunt Married to Tobacco Lobbyist

[LocalDem]

Likely future Majority Leader Roy Blunt, the person that would replace lobbying-scandal tainted Tom Delay, married a tobacco lobbyist.

And it's a lobbyist he has shown some favors to in the past.

If Blunt gets the job, this fact must be part of the story.

2. Yeah, he threw aside his wife of well over 30 years for this

younger lobbyist gal. Here in the Bible Belt of SW MO, any "God fearing" Repuke will be rewarded for that kind of behavior it seems. There seems to be no amount of hypocrisy that will go unrewarded--as long as you are on the RIGHT side of the aisle and God-- so don't get your hopes up that any "little" lobbying/collusion scandal will bring him down.

3. Yeah, I have no delusions

that such things would bring him down. But maybe it would disgust moderates in other areas just enough to vote Dem?
