After proclaiming his innocence and trying to delay his trial until after the election, mistress-choker Don Sherwood (R-PA) has settled his lawsuit. In a secret deal, Sherwood bought Cynthia Ore's silence. According to the agreement,
neither side will address this issue publicly.
Secret settlements are basically an admission of guilt. Even a former Bush and Santorum staffer agrees:
Also it seems Sherwood will not settle this lawsuit. If he settles you know he is guilty if he goes to court who knows the truth really no matter which way the verdict goes. Finally Ore does not want to Settle. Her Family is loaded.
Congressman Sherwood has no intention of leveling with voters about his behavior (and he never did!).
Lots More.....
Somehow, the records on the night of the abuse
have disappeared and Sherwood is
not going to face criminal prosecution. Now, Sherwood has paid for his mistress' silence. The only way this abuser will be held responsible for his actions is at the ballot box.
Sherwood's behavior and his voting record have put one of the reddest districts in the country in play. For the first time since Sherwood gerrymandered his district to give himself a permanent seat in Congress, he faces a real challenger. Chris Carney, a professor of International Affairs at Penn-State and a Lt. Commander in the Naval Reserves has stepped up to challenge the mistress-choker.
The differences are crystal clear.
Sherwood cheats on his wife and beats his mistress.
Chris is a devoted husband and father of 5.
Don Sherwood is a car salesman turned career politician.
Chris has never run for political office.
Since September 11th, Sherwood has traveled to DC to have an affair and to vote to put Congress in the middle of the Terri Schiavo case.
Since September 11th, Chris has traveled from the 10th district to serve his country at the Pentagon, in Korea, and in Saudi Arabia.
Sherwood has a vast personal fortune to pay off his mistress and to blow on his campaign against Chris.
Chris is running a grassroots campaign and is reliant on small contributors to take on Don Sherwood.
The Carney for Congress campaign needs all the help it can get in very conservative district. Democrats have a chance not only to strike into the heart of Republican territory, we also have the chance to knock a despicable excuse for a human being out of Congress.
The case against Sherwood was for $5.5 million. I don't have that type of money, but I'm going to send Carney $55 to help him beat this mistress beater. I urge everyone else to do the same!
