Happy 20th anniversary of the Dick Morris toe-sucking scandal

Be sure to light a candle to mark the occasion today.


On August 29, 1996, Morris resigned from the Clinton campaign after tabloid reports stated that he had been involved with a prostitute, Sherry Rowlands, as reported by the Washington Post. A New York tabloid newspaper, the Star, had obtained and published a set of photographs allegedly of Morris and the woman on a Washington, D.C., hotel balcony. News of the impending publication broke during the third day of the 1996 Democratic Convention. The Electronic Telegraph reported unverified claims that in order to impress Rowlands, Morris invited her to listen in on his conversations with President Clinton. It was also alleged he had an out-of-wedlock child from an affair with a Texas woman.

He's been blessedly absent this election cycle. He's one of the creepiest creeps to ever slime his way onto cable news shows. Just looking at him makes me want to run and take a shower, much less hearing that creepy voice uttering absolute nonsense. He really made a creepy fool out of himself in 2012, touting that nonexistent "Romney Tsunami." Again, ew.
