And just like that, confirmation from a reliable news source -- no offense, Abdul -- brings to an end the reelection bid of the Fightin' Fourth's Steve Buyer.
24-Hour News 8 has learned Indiana Congressman Steve Buyer (R-4th District) will announce he will not seek reelection during a news conference Friday.
Sources tell us Buyer, who's Frontier Foundation became the focus of a CBS investigation, chose not to run due to his wife's illness.
Buyer made changes to they way the foundation ran, moving it out of his campaign offices in Monticello, in August when questions were first raised about the fund.
Steve Buyer has made a name for himself over the last decade with habitually outlandish behavior and hyperpartisan rhetoric, but I think everyone can agree that he and his family deserve best wishes as they deal with a presumably difficult medical situation.
I'll be updating this post throughout the day with news as it develops.
