The drunk driving arrest wasn’t enough so I guess he felt the need to one up it with the ole “Who’s Your Daddy” play. You can chalk this one up to be another lost Congressional seat in November. Honestly, I’m amazed there are still Republicans left in this country after the past few years.

WASHINGTON - Representative Vito Fossella of New York ran a red light and wrecked his life. A drunken driving arrest last week led to talk of an extramarital affair, and then finally yesterday, an admission of a child from that affair.

“My personal failings and imperfections have caused enormous pain to the people I love and I am truly sorry,” said Fossella, a Republican, who lives in his Staten Island, N.Y., district with his wife and their three children.

Fossella is the only Republican member of Congress from New York City and the paternity revelation could lead to the loss of a seat in Congress at a time when the House GOP faces the possibility of a second grim November of election setbacks.

The House minority leader, John Boehner, said he expected Fossella to make decisions about his future in a matter of days, not months.
