Rep. Helen Chenoweth (R-ID) admitted to the Idaho Statesman that she had had a longtime sexual relationship with an associate named Vernon Ravenscroft. For being totally unjustifiable as a news story, this was probably the most egregious of these so-called exposés. Chenoweth was single and she wasn’t a member of Congress when she had the sexual liaison. Salon.com chortled, “To her regret, she discovered that making your private morality a story by questioning the President’s is a really bad campaign idea.”
