mansion-gate

We posted this item yesterday but thanks to our crash, it apparently traveled the path of non-existence.

So we’re doing it again.

It’s a simple question – since ever major political scandal must end in “-gate,” what do you propose S.C. Governor Mark Sanford’s sex scandal be called?

Post your thoughts in the comments section below … we have some fabulous prizes for the winners that may or may not include pillow talk emails from the governor himself!

Well if we could arrange for him to run through the pool at the National Mall screaming, “Jenny, Jenny”, then we could call it “Gump-Gate”.
Otherwise the title must pertain to that certain condition in which the little head is thinking for the big head so perhaps we go with “Inadequate cranial perfusion gate”.
Pal-meeting Gate,…maybe…no…OK

How about screwup-Gate? That is what he has been the most effective at.

Can’t you get us a pic? Is she a hottie or a nottie? All I know is that she has tan lines.

We are relying on you, man!
