Two weeks ago, another prominent suicide was reported inside the beltway. That was the death of 28-year-old Sandy Hume, a reporter for The Hill and the son of Fox News' Britt Hume. It was the young Hume who broke the story last summer about the plot within the House Republican caucus, led by Rep. Bill Paxon, to dump Newt Gingrich as speaker. Without reporting any names over the weekend (as if that somehow offered anonymity for any of the prominent public figures involved in this story), the Jerusalem Post explained that the reason for the suicide was a homosexual affair between Hume and Paxon, who also recently announced he was retiring from politics.
What the Post didn't report was that a member of Gingrich's inner circle had threatened to blow the lid off the affair should there be any more challenges to the speaker's power.
