How Missouri's Roy Blunt became a fixture on the DC party scene (by dumping his first wife)

You have to know that a post titled, "Women for Blunt rally for guy who dumped his wife for something more glamorous," is probably going to be a good read. Yeah, it's good:

Roy Blunt stopped in Columbia on Monday to visit with women who support his candidacy in spite of the fact he tossed aside the mother of his children for a Washington glamor lady.

"Women for Blunt" gathered at Moresource, a woman-owned business, to meet with the U.S. Senate hopeful, who left his wife of 35 years to be with a tobacco lobbyist. Blunt and Wife No. 2, the former Abigail Perlman, are regulars on the D.C. party scene.

The relationship between Blunt and Perlman got off to an appalling start. In 2003, The Washington Post reported that Blunt tried to package a gift for Philip Morris inside the bill creating the Department of Homeland Security. Perlman worked for Altria, P.M.'s parent company.

​At the time, the two lovebirds were not public about their relationship, which The Post delicately described as a "close personal" one. Blunt married Perlman later that year, a mere six months after his divorce became final.
The post includes a photo of the Blunts with the White House party crashers.

Yes, Roy Blunt is just a shining example of the GOP and its hypocrisy.
