Okay, this is just getting sad: "Disgraced Rep. Vito Fossella is hiding out in a tiny apartment above a garage at his sister's Staten Island house, the Daily News has learned."

There's something almost operatic in the scale of tragedy embattled Rep. Fossella (R-NY) has faced in the space of a few days. It's like Carmen, if Carmen had gotten busted driving drunk and details then emerged that she had a second secret family she was hiding in Virginia. Vito, Vito, it's time to pull down the curtain on this one, okay? And no matter how badly you want to, no matter how tempting that car you're living above is, please don't get loaded and drive it.
