"Kevin T. Coan, a former official of the St. Louis Election Board, acknowledged in court Monday that he had solicited what he thought was a 14-year-old girl for sex over the Internet in 2001.

Coan avoided jail time with a no-contest plea to the charge - indecent solicitation of a child. But he probably will not avoid a challenge to his Missouri law license, because the charge is a felony.

Coan had been the Republican director of the Election Board when he was arrested at an Alton grocery, arriving with his wallet in hand and expecting to meet the girl.

Police had created the imaginary girl's Internet profile using the picture of a real 14-year-old girl who had participated in the police department's Explorers youth program and had voluntarily agreed to have her picture used, Jensen said. "

I don't know, Chris. Are you suggesting that only Republicans are sick enough to be able to molest children? Surely there are plenty of Democratic child molesters out there.

Earthmother, it seems to me that recently you have been taking things too serioiusly. I copied this thread from DU, the title and everything. I think you know me better enough to know that I would not make that generalization.

Please, just try to lighten up. Please?

Okay, Chris. No problem. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! :lol:
