    More energy needs to be spent getting the goods on Charlie Crist. Now, there's a closet case that can cause a lot of damage.

    When did Larry Craig ever out himself? His "I am not gay" press conference after he was convicted of offering to suck off a Minnesota cop in an airport restroom is nothing but an inspiration to Andre Bauer.

    Taking his inspiration from Grace Bedell's letter to Lincoln you can be assured that Bauer (as did Florida governor Charlie Crist before him) will soon grow a "beard".

    Okay, but what's this guy Rogers' track record on reporting about closeted gay politicians? I mean percentage-wise?

    @robrob9: He claims 100% (repeatedly, but whatever). He outed both Mark Foley and Larry Craig long before the MSM caught on.

    If a heterosexual extramarital affair is Hiking the Appalachian Trail, what is a homosexual extramarital affair?

    Aww.. but he denied it as recently as early June and I assume he also denied it, when his wife made the allegation in her 2002 divorce proceeding.

    @Magister: Ah, divorce papers, the gifts that keep on giving. This would be a much better world for ex-spouses, their kids and the rest of us if divorce papers and proceedings were all subject to judicial seal.

    This frustrates me to no end. I -want- to be open to the idea of gay politicians... it shouldn't bother anyone at all. The problem is, they're all lying hypocrites and I immediately despise them from the beginning!

    After visiting the highlighted hypertext at the end of the entry, I'm pretty sure Bauer isn't the only high level closet gay Republican in the Palmetto state.
