But Vitter suggested Wednesday the report was overblown.

"In a rush to make my flight home for town hall meetings the next day, I accidentally went through a wrong door at the gate," Vitter said in a statement. "I did have a conversation with an airline employee, but it was certainly not like this silly gossip column made it out to be."

The Louisiana senator is expected to face a tough re-election bid in 2010, still vulnerable after his phone number appeared in Palfrey's "Black Book" in the summer of 2007.

1. Maybe he was in a hurry because his diaper needed to be changed?

P.S.
I don't think he has anything to worry about in 2010 given the state he lives in and the fact that a lot of voters who were forced to leave after Katrina didn't come back.

12. No, it can't be -- he doesn't believe in change, at least change that he can believe in.

I suspect that he thought it was a door to a brothel rather than to a jetway.

What did he think awaited him behind that special door?
