There's nothing quite like a politician scorned.
You've obviously never scorned a woman.
When voters in Ohio's 1st Congressional District threw Democrat Steve Driehaus out of office after only one term, he did not bow out gracefully. No, he decided to get even. So he did what anyone does in today's culture: he sued somebody.
It's not fair! I didn't get a trophy. They told me everybody wins when I was in Grammer School!
Charging that its activities contributed to his defeat and thus to his "loss of livelihood," Driehaus is suing the Susan B.
