We've been getting some snippy emails from people who look at the romance between newly elected congressional hottie Stephanie Herseth (D-S.D.) and Texas Representative Max Sandlin (D) and see scandal. We quote: "Girrrrrrl, you have missed this one." This particular correspondent saw a parallel to a story about a certain DC intern who used sex as a career booster. Well, we see that parallel, too. Someone really should take Sandlin aside and explain to him that there are other ways of getting ahead besides putting out for a more glamorous media darling like Herseth. Really. He's tarnishing the reputation of House members -- who, as one senate staffer we know put it, "are like interns anyway."
