    Yep. Read somewhere 1500 wrestlers may be involved. Huge number. And the doctor involved in the abuse is dead, so this isn’t about putting him in jail.

    It’s about OSU.

    Which is why nothing, nothing at all will come from this. The most beloved state institution is rotten to the core. Denial is the only response.

    The head coach, Russ Hellickson, said he talked about the matter with the doctor, but as best I can tell, he didn't have the authority to fire or discipline him. I wonder if he reported anything to the administration.

    I’ve been a reporter in his district in the past. Jim Jordan could win that district no matter the allegation against him.

    Absolutely. One of the most gerrymandered ones there is.

    I am sure he could win the election but if he is proven to be a liar and in fact did nothing about sexual assault will he have to resign?

    No. One thing about being a republican is that you never have to apologize because your dear leader doesn't.

    John Boehner couldn’t squash him. And, Lord, he tried.

    Conservative hero Roy Moore damned near won the Senate. I'm pretty confident Jordan will win even if the allegations get worse. He's a Freedom Caucasian, which means he's even more American, even more Christian, even more wonderful than your average republican.

    People in his district should be ashamed of supporting such a horrible person. I’ll never support a Rep who ignores/ignored abuse.
