Mayor Sam Adams apologizes for his  lie and his sexual relationship with an 18 year old (who may have been under-age at the time) at a press conference in the Rose Room Tuesday at City Hall in Portland, Ore. Randy Stapilus no longer believes that Adams' scandal will blow over here. And Michael Costello of Red County believes the media is ignoring the fact that Adams is a Democrat here.
