Dear Facebook Friends, Thanks so much for your understanding!! I'll open up the page later, but for obvious reasons, have to watch comments.

“As a proud former peace officer and longtime champion for public safety, I am forced to face the reality that I have made some at the Capitol feel uncomfortable, and disrespected. To those individuals and specifically the unnamed lobbyist , I sincerely apologize for my unwelcome behavior. “I would also like to apologize to God, my family, my constituents, and friends for the mistakes I have made.
After having conferred with family members, friends and advisors, it is with deep regret tonight that I am announcing my intention to resign from the Minnesota House of Representatives. I do so after reaching an agreement in principle with the unnamed lobbyist that has been mentioned. The agreement is basically that I offer the enclosed apology, and resign from my office, on or before December, 1st 2017 and that we both provide each other with a mutual release of any claims against each other now and in the future.
Sincerely, State Representative Tony Cornish

Look at it this way...Dayton will appoint some ultra progressive to replace Franken. Would you rather it be someone who can't be reelected statewide or would you rather it be someone with broader appeal across the state?

As for Cornish, a couple things I would note in this. First, his accuser outed herself (which some of you were critical of her for not doing). Second, he resigned under conditions set by her and her attorney. Which means that there was definitely more there and he was at risk of being sued personally in a civil suit for damages. It's pretty clear that she let the issue drop in exchange for his unqualified resignation.

Never piss into the wind. Don't **** where you eat. And don't try to **** people with whom you have work/business relationships.

So if he resigned under conditions set forth by her attorney, then it would imply she was planning to sue. If she expected to win, she felt she had damages. What does she gain by his resignation?
