Speaker Mike Sheridan has recently come under scrutiny over his relationship with a registered lobbyist. Sheridan's support for a tough regulation bill on payday loan interest rates has softened in recent months and the public would like to know if it has anything to do with the fact that the lobbyist he dated works for the company that owns Cash & Go.
When first questioned about the relationship, in true politician fashion, he denied they were more than friends. Apparently, after giving it some thought over the weekend he decided to come clean and admit to dating Shanna Wycoff.
I feel that everyone has the right to keep their private life private but when you are a public servant and by all appearances there is a blatant conflict of interest some sort of recourse must be enacted.
Does anyone really believe this statement would fly for a conservative?
