We'll see if he gets charged

No worse than an athlete.

Above: an interesting case study in "interpretive partisanship" here (and below).  Above we have a case of 'their team/our team'  ping-ponging "ah-ha! vis-a-vis "no big deal."

Below: a newspaper account that goes out of its way to glean an opinion (all well and good) from a progressive "our team" source:

https://abc7news.com/nancy-pelosi-paul-porsche-dui-napa-husband/11907704/

"I don't think we should be paying much attention to what her husband is doing because again, he is not an elected official," said political science professor Melissa Michelson who is also the Dean of Arts and Sciences at Menlo College.

Having said that, my learned take??

Paulie Pelosi: like Paul Newman once said: why go out for hamburger when you can have filet mignon at home??

res ipsa loquitur

the first mistake Melfi's date made was turning into that side street to pull over - should've stayed on the main drag under a bright streetlight

actually he should've stayed put at her place, ordered take out and spent the evening banging Melfi (Lorraine Bracco = bangable)

Good to know that Ohio is such a brilliantly run state that the politicians there have nothing better to do than this.

Ohio has produced the most astronauts of any state in the Union, mostly because it's such an awful place to live that people will do anything to get as far away from it as possible.
