In case you thought Harry Reid is the most troubled politician in Nevada, today's story about the settlement of Republican Gov. Jim Gibbons' nasty divorce from his wife, former state legislator and congressional candidate Dawn Gibbons, might be illuminating:

In turn, Jim Gibbons unsuccessfully tried to boot her from the governor's mansion in Carson City — she retreated to an apartment on the grounds — and in court papers compared living with her to “being locked in a phone booth with an enraged ferret.”
