Breaking: Ray LaHood (R-IL) calls for Ryan to withdraw.

Just heard him live on the local news: http://www.wandtv.com


The rats are jumping ship. :evilgrin:

1. I heard on 'BEZ this morning that La Hood has never been a fan of

Jack Ryan's. I wonder when some other party big shot will have the nerve to ask their "golden boy" to move along.

2. The same story has Judy Barr-Topinka saying that...

she is 'deeply concerned' and 'wants to review the documents'.

3. He jumped two days ago...

His initial reaction when he heard about the sex angle of this was quick...and you could see him backing off in a real hurry...as if on cue. Or, as I still get a sneaking suspicion, he may have known this was coming and this is all part of a ballet.

La Hood is Hastert's "dummy"...he'll move his voice and you won't see Dennis' lips move. So you know this comes fully sanctioned and, yep, the ship is about to desert the rats! LOL!!!

I'm just laughing at how long it's taking the "party of morality" to react to this thing. This isn't some investigative report based on allegations here...these are papers filed in a public court...prima facia fact!!! How much more law school do these yokels need to realize this guy admitted in a court about his kinks and still is now out on the campaign trail trying to deny it. This is just absurd.

Just shows what a mess the state party is right now. Nobody's home in Springfield...Judy? Judy?? Judy???? And the national party is trying to play spin/damage control...either because they're blind-sided or they have an alternative already to go.

I'd say this was just crazy timing, but the fact of Bushyboy not being that far behind Kerry in the polls in the state in many polls makes me wonder if there are Rovejinks going on here.

Cheers.
