Married Nebraska state senator fined $1,000 for having cyber-sex, with other woman, on state laptop [View all]

refuses to resign. He owned up to the activity after the woman threatened to blackmail him.

Two guesses as to which party he's in and the first one doesn't count.

At least the Governor is calling on him to resign.

The story:

Nebraska senator admits to engaging in cybersex
Sen. Bill Kintner fined, called to resign
