Shock?
Think of all the lower-level political staffers, the volunteers, the politics junkies who came to the convention because they want to hang out with other politics junkies. There are lots of young, enthusiastic people in a city full of strangers who are only going to be there for a week. Like spring break, without the beaches.
But it might be the combination of technological skills and go-getter attitude shared by young political staffers that lead them to post their desires on Craiglist...
That morality stuff is mostly for Sunday morning, not Saturday night.
It may be true, but that's not a good source.
It will be very interesting to see how the RNC works out. I suspect more of the same, with a slightly higher ratio on the m4m board (for many gay Republicans, the convention could be the only serious shot they have at finding a partner who shares their political views).
