West Palm Beach Congressman Tim Mahoney (D-FL), whose predecessor resigned in the wake of a sex scandal, agreed to a $121,000 payment to a former mistress who worked on his staff and was threatening to sue him, according to current and former members of his staff who have been briefed on the settlement, which involved Mahoney and his campaign committee.
Mahoney, who is married, also promised the woman, Patricia Allen, a $50,000 a year job for two years at the agency that handles his campaign advertising, the staffers said.
A Mahoney spokesperson would not answer questions about the alleged affair or the settlement, but said Allen resigned of her own accord and "has not received any special payment from campaign funds."

Oh, it's a Dem? Oh, snap! And it's Foley's REPLACEMENT??? Jesus, could you guys be any stupider?
And I love the photo caption (but damn dude, if you're gonna cheat, find something decent looking, will ya?)
The affair between Congressman Tim Mahoney and Patricia Allen began, according to current and former staffers, in 2006 when Mahoney was campaigning for Congress against Foley, promising "a world that is safer, more moral."

If they do run it, they'll bury his party affliation waaaaaaaaaay down in the article - Republicans in any sort of trouble get the party mentioned in the headline, then several times in any article by the lamestream media.

He doesn't have to resign because he's a liberal and they don't believe in family values, hence no hypocrisy.
