I've written several Diaries on my Republicon Congressman, Michael Grimm of NY CD-11 but none can beat this one.
Sources say Rep. Michael Grimm snuck into the bathroom of an upscale wine bar in Brooklyn the weekend before the federal government shutdown to allegedly have sex with a female companion, the New York Post reports: http://bit.ly/....
This story was reported in the New York Post which is a Murdock owned newspaper and I first saw it in City & State which is a local blog.
Now, I know 2 members of the Mile High Club but they became club members in their early 20's not at Grimm's age which is 43. I guess he needed this quicky so he could vote for the CR. I hope this club, which I've been to also, used plenty of Lysol to clean that bathroom. More below the fold.
Grimm was on Hardball with Chris Matthews last night and Matthews asked him if the Tea Party was part of the Republicon Party or separate and after a small hesitation, Grimm said that they're separate. I'm sure that the Staten Island Tea Party that endorsed him in 2010 and 2012 are going to be glad to hear that news. Lets see if they try to run a candidate in a Primary against him.
Additionally, Grimm has a Democratic challenger named Domenic Recchia who is a current NYC Councilman. Recchia already has the backing of the DCCC with this district voting for President Obama in 2012 (after voting for Gore in 2000 SI voted for Bush in 2004 and McCain in 2008) and starting to lean more and more Democratic.
