Gov. Mike Rounds agreed Tuesday to call the South Dakota Senate into a special session to look into allegations that a senator acted inappropriately earlier this year with a high school student who served as a legislative page...Senate leaders had asked the governor to call the special session, which will start Nov. 27...Rounds said he received a letter signed by Senate leaders from both political parties, and he decided to honor their request and call the Senate into a special session...The father of the former page has accused Sen. Dan Sutton, D-Flandreau, of misconduct during the past legislative session....Governor Calls Special Session, Chet Brokaw, Rapid City Journal, 10/25/2006
Things must be changing. Sexual harassment in a state known for Mt. Rushmore and the Corn Palace seems about as likely as sexual harassment in the Oval Office or in the United States Congress. Whoops! Out of date again...I must have been out of the country for the past eight years. But seriously, is there something about elective office that makes chasing after teenagers attractive to middle aged men? A better solution to those strange changes of middle age is to buy that Corvette you've been looking at for the past forty years. It will teach you just as much about how much things (and your driving skills) have changed since 1965 and you won't get arrested (or canonized, if you're a Democrat) except for speeding.
