U.S. Representative paying off ex-mistress
Don Sherwood, a Representative from Pennsylvania, is paying Cynthia Ore, his former mistress, a $500,000 settlement reached at the end of last year. As it turns out, Ore was to file charges against Rep. Sherwood, claiming abuse. Sherwood denied the claim, and agreed to the payment.
The kicker, though, is that there was a clause stating that if she came forward to the press BEFORE the upcoming elections, she would lose part of the settlement money. Pretty bold of the Rep. to put in an election clause. Chances are, though, this will not hurt his reelection bid, since the story has now come out.

Pretty much...
