Democrat drops out of Kansas race

The ex-candidate (was alleged to have) committed unwanted advances of a sexual nature toward an employee.

The Kansas City Star says Andrea Ramsey “will drop out of the race after the Kansas City Star asked her about accusations in a 2005 lawsuit that she sexually harassed and retaliated against a male subordinate who said he had rejected her advances.”

That’s right. The Democratic ex-candidate is a woman. A woman! Who knew some (alleged) sexual predators could be Democratic women?

And not too bright, either, as Ramsay’s statements show.

Ramsey was vice president of human resources when she (allegedly) made overtures of a sexual nature to a man employee, who also was in human resources. The man said he was fired after declining Ms. Ramsey’s advances. He filed suit and later settled with the company, LabOne.

In interviews with the newspaper, Mrs. Ramsey said she “was not aware of any settlement.”

Wait, wait. She was VP of human resources, yet the company never told her it was going to, and even had, reached a monetary settlement with the man she fired? A high-up company officer costs the company who knows how much money, but the company doesn’t inform its HR VP?

Ramsey was one of several Democratic candidates seeking to go against the Republican incumbent for Kansas’ 3rd District.

Ramsey also said: “In its rush to claim the high ground in our roiling national conversation about harassment, the Democratic Party has implemented a zero tolerance standard. For me, that means a vindictive, terminated employee’s false allegations are enough for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) to decide not to support our promising campaign. We are in a national moment where rough justice stands in place of careful analysis, nuance and due process.”

Try that explanation on CNN. People there might believe you.
