Kenny Guinn was never this much fun.

Holy shit, this makes the Foley scandal seem like mere child's play. Pun intended.

But if Slate doesn't update its election scorecard, does it really mean the Democrat has a good chance of winning?

"Why waste time scanning when you can just shoot"?

Granted, Nevada is stuck hard between a rock and a place(or a cock and a space), but...do we really want psycopaths running things?

Will there be a single Republican left by Election Day?

Do, do, do the funky Gibbon(s)...

If Jimmah can prove he ever watched "The Goodies", he won't need to scour the ends of the earth (ok, Malta) for a Catholic priest to NOT blame his drunken antics on.

"She was not, uh, in, she, I, I don't, uh you know, like I said, uh, she might have been tipsy," he told police. "Uh, she didn't walk in a straight line. That's for sure. Cause she, you know, bump into ya when you're walking along and, you know, I didn't think anything of that. And just helping this lady, and that was all."

"Gosh I learned an important lesson, never to offer a helping hand to anybody ever again."

And that's a very important lesson for an aspiring GOP Governor to learn.

Wait, gibbon a type of monkey, macaca ... see how it all fits together.

so when does main stream media pick this up???

or will they ever??
can't have all these rethug criminals and sexual family values boys being outed can we??

how will the fundies deal with all this smut at their meetings??????or churches..ican hear it now..forgive them for they know not what they do.lol....they are drunk and going to rehab!!

This is the best Cocktoberfest ever!

OMG, the first known Goodies reference in the last 20 years!
Well, this is what happens. You get all three branches of Government under your control and you start to believe you can get away with ANYthing.

Any bets on what he'll offer to go to rehab for? Alcohol? Drugs? Sex addiction? Two or more of the above? Fallen politicians should get discounted group rate at rehab centers.

I hate Halloween!! That'll mean Cocktober will be over.

Wow. Gibbons gave the cops the old "I just went to help her up when she fell down" cover story to explain away any camera shots or eyewitness accounts of him groping her in a dark garage after drinking it up. Someone has a great lawyer.

I just hope these true-or-otherwise-inexplicable allegations don't sully the fine reputations of the GOP or Las Vegas.

Wonkette should host a Hallowe'en contest for the best GOP scandal costume! So many choices...

Do you think he'll blame his problem with alcohol on his constant struggle with an addiction to dirty IMing little boys?

"You see, officer, I thought I could help get out a stuck tampon by forcing my penis into her va-jay-jay. Also, I'm late for a vote on the floor. Whaddaya mean? It worked for a Kennedy!"

Edsdesk: We've had psychopaths running things for near-on 6 years.

It's time for a change.

Let's vote out the old scoundrals and vote in some new scoundrals

Q: "Qualifications?"
A: "Rape, murder, arson, bigamy and rape".

Q: "You said rape twice?!"
A: "I like rape."

So many questions for Jim-boy:

Why is he purportedly helping "Chris" find her truck, but then he didn't?

Why is her's the only name of the four women he can remember? ...her name, her age, and the age of her child.

Why would anyone -- much less a potential leader of the state of Nevada -- let a falling down drunk person drive and threaten the lives of themselves and others?

Congressman Gibbon's statement does NOT pass the credibility test!!!

Always look for the cameras before you take the drunken leap. Who am I kidding...fuck the cameras, because the GOP is totally fucked now, anyway. He can't blame this on playing "Hide and Seek the Priestly Penis" like Foley did.

I thought the GOP candididate for Governor of Nevada was a good Christian... and NOBLE...
but he's NOT!

he's just a DIRTY BIRDY!

He can't kill MISTRESSY!

(to paraphrase ANNIE WILKES from "MISERY"

I live in Vegas and on the news tonight, they said she did NOT recant her story.

She's just not pressing charges because she doesn't want to "fight these kind of people" (Or something like that.)

At his press conference, Gibbons read his entire statement word-for-word, just like Bush, aka Smirking Monkey, does everytime he has to talk.

When he refuted the charges, he sounded like a robot when he read. There was no passion when he denied any of it.

The guy is as big a moron as Georgie.

Maybe Gibbons will be creative and spin the Foley excuses into:

1) I enjoy the meth as much as the next northern Nevada tweaker

and

2) The only rabbi in Reno molested me when I was 14

Otherwise, if he screams booze and bishops, that's soooooooo late-September. Think out of the box, GOP.

It should be noted that Gibbons is the politician that referred to environmentalists as "Birkenstock wearing tree huggers" in a speech he gave in Elko earlier this year. And I believe that was the speech that it turned out was plagiarized.

He has entertained Nevada as a Congressman and will continue to amuse if he becomes governor.

If ever "ignore the man behind the curtain" applied to a politician, it's Jim Gibbons. And that man is .. Sig Rogich. He's notorious for being THE backroom Republican powerbroker in Nevada, and is well-known nationally as the former Chairman of the Republican Party and, ahem, great buddy of George Herbert Walker Bush. Gibbons is less famous but equally well-known in these parts for being dumber-than-dirt, giving speeches that he has plagiariazed word for word, with a completely undistinguished 10-year career as northern Nevada's rubberstamp-conservative Congressman. You better believe Rogich is dancing overtime right now, attempting to put his Humpty Dumpty client back together again, and laughably manipulating his ding-dongs to get his creepy charge Gibbons back on the here-to-fore happily paved road to the Governor's Mansion in Carson City. Thank god the benefactor of this charade (and possible crime) is the very cool & capable Democrat, Dina Titus.

This "friends of democrats" feeding frenzy has become so transparently obvious. OK. Let's get some bimbo drunk, get her to call 911, release the tapes and run it up the forest of BS flagpoles to add to the turbulence.

Maybe we need to be led by democrats for a few years to remember why we left... (the left, hee hee)

This would never have happened if Mimi Miyagi had won the GOP primary. Why don't the voters ever listen.

If Mimi had won the GOP primary, none of this would have every happened. She's still running on the Libertarian line. She can still win people. Wonkette, get your engine fired up for Mimi.

When does it stop? What's happened to this country? Why does power have to corrupt? Where is the conscience? Who will rescue us? Get out and VOTE!!!

Would that be this Chrissy Mazzeo?

She didn't recant the charges

http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/us/AP-Gibbons-Accusation.h...

She decided not to PRESS Charges, big difference

I guess what happens in Las Vegas doesn't stay in Las Vegas any more ...

A close friend works at the restaurant where the Jim Gibbons debacle took place. This person personally saw him down three or four glasses of wine (he says he sipped one) and overheard very sexual remarks, dirty jokes, etc. Gibbons claims to be a pious Morman and says he doesn't really drink.
By the way, Chrissy Mazzeo DID NOT CHANGE HER STORY. She did not press charges because she has a small child and doesn't believe she can win against someone with this much power and obvious police support. By the way, the police report was buried until Gibbons opponent was tipped off and brought it to light. Now it's going national in newspapers and hopefully the national television media will pick up the story.
He hasn't lost yet though--there's still time to figure out a way to blame Bill Clinton.

I'm just waiting for Leola McConnell to come out with her Gibbons is a homosexual story. (She was the OTHER gubernatorial candidate employed in the sex industry)
