Abuse Experts See E-Mails as Red Flag
They say congressional leaders should have acted on Foley's 'over- friendly' contacts with pages, which suggest predatory behavior.
"Taken as a whole, [the e-mails] show an adult man of prominent position evidencing a peculiarly personal interest in a boy about whom he knows very little. Taken together, they suggest someone who is trying to establish a personal relationship that ought to at least raise some questions,"

But, but, this scandal benefits Democrats!
Therefore, it's obviously political in nature! And therefore it's not a real scandal! And besides, we're going to police ourselves from now on, we promise! [/repugapologists]

61% Believe Republican Leaders Have Been Protecting Foley
The data supports speculation that this issue could have a devastating impact on Republican prospects at the polls this fall. Even among Republicans, 31% believe the GOP leadership has been protecting Foley.
Perhaps more significant politically, 69% of those not affiliated with either major party believe that leadership has been protecting Foley. Only 9% of unaffiliated the GOP leaders just learned of the problem last week.
And this is with Faux News and the AP trying to sell Foley as (D - Florida).
