Sarah Palin -- by winning a special House election, according to unofficial ranked-choice voting results released Wednesday by the state Division of Elections.Her unlikely bid for the House was unique to Alaska, where political relationships span decades and voters who have elected independents and write-in candidates to major offices have what Peltola calls a "libertarian bent" that at times defies the partisan label the state has earned by voting consistently for Republican presidential candidates.She has a warm relationship with Palin, who once gave her family's backyard trampoline to Peltola's family, and she once spent Thanksgiving with the late Rep.

Hi Jake,I am a 28-year-old, professional gay man with a very specific liking for married straight men. Now, I know such guys (usually in straight relationships and on the DL) should be faithful to their significant other, I just feel it is almost a biological urge on my side to flirt with them if I think they are cute or if they show any signs of being bi-curious.

Do I need to change?The Caped SeducerDear The Caped Seducer,I don’t think it’s healthy for anyone to have guilt around their sexual desires and predilections, as long as you are engaged in mutual affairs and are not harming anyone or breaking any laws.
