Wonkette Rules. She has been mercilessly obsessing on the Washingtonienne scandal. Washingtonienne is a staffer of Ohio Republican Senator Mike DeWine who published her sexploits on her now defunct weblog. We won't go into details here, just go read Wonkette. But there's real news today: Gannett News reports that Senator DeWine has issued a statement.

Sen. Mike DeWine said Thursday that he has not decided whether to fire an aide who allegedly posted her exploits in an Internet diary, including accepting $400 from a married man for sex. "We're in the process of completing a review," the Ohio Republican said. "It's a personnel matter." DeWine said he expects to make a decision soon.

....In the blog, the woman said she had a variety of partners. These included an older man, a co-worker with whom she was involved in an "office sex scandal"; and a married Bush appointee who also gave her money.

The cached version of Washingtonienne's blog is here. Be forewarned, it's graphic explicit.

Update: DeWine fires Washingtonienne. She calls Wonkette and gives a taped interview . Her name is Jessica Cutler. The Washington Post will have an article about her, with a picture, on Sunday.
