Senator Max Baucus acknowledges the fact that he recommended his girlfriend Melodee Hanes, a highly qualified prosecutor, for being nominated for United States attorney of State. Since Ms. Hanes and Mr. Baucus had a developing relationship which caused the controversy that she was picked due to favorites and not for her competence. Is it too impossible that Mr. Baucus have a relationship with a strong, powerful attorney? For once why can't a woman be criticized for her skill and not her relationship status? It is not like Ms. Hanes got an unfair advantage but after a unified decision with the senator, she decided to remove her name from the nomination for Federal Prosecutor. This was probably due to the pesky media that seems to want to find a scandal in everything. Fortunately for Ms. Hanes she found a new position as an attorney of the Justice Department, a job that she got on her own means, wit and skill with no help, no recommendations from her boyfriend, Mr. Max Baucus. So there!
