Rep. Tim Mahoney paid $121,000 to a former mistress who worked on his staff and sued him after he threatened her job when she tried to end the relationship, former and current staff aides told ABC News on Monday.
Mahoney, D-Fla., won his congressional seat in 2006 after Rep. Mark Foley, a Republican, was forced to resign in the wake of a scandal involving a congressional page.

ABC reported Allen tried to break off the affair after learning Mahoney was supposedly cheating on her and his wife with other women. In response, he threatened her job, ABC reported.

Hey wait a minute.....maybe I support the wrong party. Seems like these guys have more women than I did when I was younger. Of course I didn’t have their (your) money to give them.

Now, now this is his private business. It is only public business when it is one of those horrible Republicans. What a bunch of losers.
she is ugly..
“she is ugly..”
Maybe thats why he cheated on her.
I hope he slept with her at least 121 times, or he got over-charged.
Typical Gov’t, they over pay for everything. Lol.

How did that work out for New York’s former governor, Elliot Spitzer?
He didn't go to Vegas. He hired a local escort.
