A sheriff seeking the GOP nomination for an Arizona congressional seat was forced to confirm he is gay Saturday and resigned from presidential hopeful Mitt Romney's Arizona committee amid allegations of misconduct made by a man with whom he previously had a relationship.
Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu denied claims he tried to threaten the man, a Mexican immigrant and a former campaign volunteer, with deportation if their past relationship was made public. The man's allegations were first published Friday in The New Times, a Phoenix alternative weekly magazine.
Babeu, a first-term sheriff who has risen to national prominence with his strong opposition to illegal immigration and smuggling, said the accusations were an attempt to hurt his political career.
He vowed to continue his campaign in Arizona's rural western 4th Congressional District seat, but said he had called presidential candidate Mitt Romney's staff to say he would step down from his post as state campaign co-chair.

The article says it's a dating site. I thought everyone here was taking the article as gospel!?!
I dont know many heterosexual dating sites where you talk about your penis size and what position you prefer.
You should surf the web a little more. lol
What do you think A. Weiner was doing on Twitter?
Babeau is Weiner. Two perverted liars.
No, Weiner denied what he did for weeks. Babeu immediately confronted the story in the press and owned up to it. No surprise that you can’t see the ethical difference there.
Weiner: A perverted liar who admitted the truth only after photos proved it was him.
Babeau: A perverted liar who admitted the truth only after photos proved it was him.
That's a mighty low standard of journalistic integrity even by today's miserable standards. But it's up to your standards apparently.
Another difference; Weiner was not accused of doing anything illegal yet he vehemently denied it and threw nasty counter-accusations at those who reported it. Babeu was accused of breaking the law, which he denies and no evidence supports, but he hasn't blamed anyone for reporting about him.
WTF is that? I don’t need your urban lingo dictionary, dude. You tied yourself to a literal belief in whatever the PNT’s prints so you can keep your sophistry now.
I saw that th th th th the first time.
It’s your lying homosexual sheriff’s term for himself: vers
The link gives the definition: sheriff likes to take it up the arse sometimes, and sometimes he likes to poke around in another man’s arse.
You sure know a lot about that stuff. I’m not interested in that aspect of his life.
I pointed you to the google search result for the word that guy you love uses to describe himself. You are now edified as to what type of sex your chosen man enjoys.
That interests you not me.
It says it all about you that’s for sure. Got the poster on your wall?
What do Imthink Weinet was doing? We know what he was doing..And he lost his job, didn’t he.
Wiener was married too. A man running for US Congress should know better. Last time I am going to say it.
You are wrong. It was the four page article I posted the other night. That was the first one to hit.. Pics and all.
Last time you’re going to say what? None of that post seems relevant to anything I said and most of it is so incoherent I don’t know what it says.
It didn’t have those pics the night you posted it. It was also only one page and much shorter than it is now. This morning it was divided into four web pages with all the new content. Now it has been condensed onto one web page.
Really? My posts are incoherent? Is that how you want to end this? A personal attack? Good night. if you want to continue this in a civil manner, let me know. Your guy screwed up. It’s as simple as that.
