Baucus Nominated Girlfriend for U.S. Attorney
« on: December 05, 2009, 07:53:42 AM »



Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus was romantically involved with a former staffer when he recommended her earlier this year to become the next U.S. attorney for Montana, a spokesman said.

The Montana Democrat and his former state office director Melodee Hanes began their relationship in the summer of 2008 after Baucus separated from his wife, Ty Matsdorf told The Associated Press late Friday.

Baucus nominated Hanes for the U.S. attorney post in March. But she later withdrew, saying she had been presented with other opportunities she couldn't pass up.

The Senate leader who's been a major proponent of Democratic health care legislation had submitted six names to a third-party reviewer, who whittled those to Hanes and two others.

Just giving this one some love.  It really doesn't need any comment.

If she's Baucus' girlfriend, you'd probably have to clean that "carpet" with a razor, a lighter and an ice pick. :puke:
