4. Wu has admitted of the sexual encounter
saying it was consensual. I thought sex with a teenager by an adult is automatically considered rape?

5. This is just the latest of a continuum of negative events
I intended to help other Dems replace him before this most recent debacle ...

The dude is a creep, and this has been a reliably Democratic seat for over 30 years ..... There is no reason to allow his spiraling reputation to threaten that seat ....

There are PLENTY of good Democrats in this region ... It is past time for him to go ...

6. He was accused of more than just a "sexual encounter"-he was accused of an UNWANTED sexual encounter
That's pretty serious . . .
