I expect a lot of people here to DEMAND he drop out and will now villify him.

In Louisiana’s 1991 “jungle primary,” the two top vote-getters were: Edwin Edwards, a former Democratic governor who had been charged with bribery and later convicted of extortion and money laundering; and David Duke, the former grand wizard of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, who ran as a Republican. Duke received only 32% of the vote, but that was enough to advance to the runoff. Although he had run for office several times in the 1980s as a Democrat, Duke ran as a Republican in 1991 — and won the Republican candidacy. Faced with an impossible choice of backing an unrepentant white supremacist on their party’s ticket, Republicans rallied around Edwards, launching a campaign under the nose-holding slogan: “Vote for the crook — it’s important.” And it worked. The crook Edwards defeated Duke, 61% to 39%.

1. The publishing source is the NYT, which probably has zero Rs on staff, plus or minus a janitor or three.
2. Of the several women who made claims to the NYT, only one is an R. Guess which one the NYT chose to name to help vengeful doxxers.
3. At least one of the women - the one the NYT named - provided contemporary evidence and names of friends who could corroborate having spoken of Platner's behavior.
4. As any R or conservative would know, there is no way in Hades the NYT would not have published this without permission from the Dem Party.

Seeing that Platner just met with Democrats to tell them no more bad stuff from his past was forthcoming, I don't think it's Republicans who are scared.

1. ... Republicans are scared and know Collins is toast.
Failed Arizona politician sez wut? Collins is a RINO while Platner is toast ... IMO, of course.
