(...) Wingard actually fondled the sweet young things that House leadership is seemingly content to ogle. As The Oregonian's Michelle Cole reported Thursday, Wingard is one of seven House Republicans who topped off a three-day golf holiday in Palm Springs last January by checking out the topless dancers at a local bar. That midnight ramble might never have gone public had not Wingard's sexual relationship with Samantha Berrier, a 20-year-old staffer, come to light. While Wingard disagreed with Berrier's insistence that he pressured her into his bed, he eventually realized he was unelectable for a millennium or two and announced in June he would not seek re-election.
