Now he's available to run for national office as a Rethug. He's got the right "background" (Think: Larry Craig and David Vitter).

His wife of the non eye patch panties probably filed for divorce. Maybe he can be on Mark Foley's sex chat show? Oops I mean radio programme.

Gotta love these guys. Didn't McCain have a buxom energy lobbyist "friend" and "frequent traveling companion?"

McCain's defense was "I'm a Maverick!" and besides, I'm too old to get it up. Oh and uh, family values.

Note.... he didn't resign because of his lack of ethics and family values hypocrisy. Says his "comments were inappropriate" but doesn't admit his BEHAVIOR is inappropriate for a family values bible thumping right wing propagandist pol.

Nor did he apologize for being a low class school drop out who got into office based upon being an illiterate homophobic propagandist.

He resigned as he says because he's a "distraction". Apparently he, like the rest caught in their zippers, isn't man enough to resign with class.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight...it's the "inappropriate comments" that have become a distraction. Apparently, his behavior isn't an issue.

I'm no prude, but this is the kind of thing one would think one keeps to oneself, and if caught, pay the consequences. But it's the comments that were the problem...

I need to stop rolling my eyes now, cuz I'm getting dizzy....

Great! Now he can spend more time in his "authentic Western saloon" doing authentic-Western-saloon things like, well you know...

PS:

www.sacbee.com has updates and articles.

Any guess as to how many million$ his vote$ on chamber floors cost the tax payers so he could brag about dripping married tootsie down the stairs?

And since Sacramento is atwitter with the 'common knowledge' he's got mistress(es) and no one bothered to give a heads up on this family values hypocrite ....obviously values are not valued in the State Assembly's GOP membership.

The guy who sat rapt and even asked if he liked spanking during the hot mike mania -- didn't bother to remind Duvall he's married during the event either.

Duvall's own bragging outed the man beside him and the party who now confess Duvall's affairs "were the worst kept secret" in Sacramento

There should be a criminal investigation - shagging folks 20 years younger than you usually means you're paying for it one way or another.

And if this was common knowledge then why was it allowed given the epic conflict of interest.

Sempra Energy paid for the panties? Outrageous! No wonder our natural gas prices are so high in California.

KY, maybe the state Republican leadership never liked this guy, or didn't need his vote like the Repubs needed in the Senate with Vitter.

I agree with KY Yellow Dog, this is way too fast. Republicans don't simply do this. This has to be the result of bribery that will be uncovered by a simple check of campaign contributions and expenditures. When he drew fire and folded like a wimp, there is definitely something fishy. I'd say his corporate owners told him to get out NOW.

"I am a Republican Real American who wants to protect my Freedom, save Granny, defend marriage from gays who would destroy the family, cut taxes and GET THE SAME PERKS Duvall got, where do I apply for his job?

After jumping over to look at the TPM photo Gallery of Conservative Scandals, I noticed we have 11 shots. Maybe when the 12th morality crusader bites the dust of lust we could produce a TPM 2010 Republican Leadership Calendar. It would spread the word more widely, hanging in barber shops and fire halls around the land.

Who is the assemblyman on the receiving end of that conversation and why isn't he being dragged into this? Once his colleague told him he was having sex with lobbyists it seems to me he had a clear ethical obligation to report it.

His political career is over. Why not open a new line of lingerie. What else could this lummox possibly do? Sell bug spray or lawn sprinklers- the Dog food industry is already tainted.

He will be celebrated by the rightwing.

Each one of us has to hit rock bottom before we can really know God.

For those of us who don't fail as human beings, we're "elite" because we aren't "sinful" enough to really know God, not like they do anyway.

Any guess who is going to offer his a fat-daddy job ?
My money is on Sempra Energy, the lobbying firm his spanking girl works for. He got some spailin' to do at home, but I doubt his career will suffer.

Definitely the most satisfying asshole conservative flame out since Randy Cunningham belly flopped off the stern of the Duke-stir.

Just when I'm convinced that God doesn't exist, he goes and dishes out some instant karma to these creeps.

If you’re an old, fat, white, Republican in government on an energy committee, give her a call she may service you.

Let's see how much he gets from this corporate hooker, now that he is out of office.

Apparently CBS had the video removed from YouTube, citing copyright violations. Did anyone get to download it?

The public being screwed by proxy, nice.

The best I can say about Duvall is at least he did one thing that was honorable and resign.
