Apparently, Shrock loves the Cock! Another Congressman biting the dust. This time from Virginia.
NEW YORK (CNN) -- Rep. Ed Schrock, one of the most conservative members of the House of Representatives, unexpectedly dropped his bid for a third term Monday amid unverified allegations that he called a gay phone sex line.
The married Republican lawmaker, who has skipped the Republican National Convention, said in a statement that unspecified allegations sparked his decision.
Allegations that Schrock is gay were posted on the Web site blogactive.com by Michael Rogers, according to The Associated Press.
Two House Republican leadership aides told CNN that Schrock has been wrestling this month with how to respond to the allegations.
Schrock, who plans to serve out the remainder of his term, has been a leading supporter of the Federal Marriage Amendment, a proposed constitutional amendment that would ban same-sex marriage.
Rogers told the AP that his blog is aimed at exposing "hypocrites" in Congress.
"It got to the point that he had to address [the allegations]," one GOP leadership aide said.
Schrock had at least one meeting with the National Republican Congressional Committee to discuss the allegations. Schrock initially suggested to the NRCC that he "was going to fight it hard" before he had a change of heart, the aide said.
"He didn't want to drag his family through this thing," the aide said.
Attempts to contact the congressman through his chief of staff were unsuccessful.
"In recent weeks, allegations have surfaced that have called into question my ability to represent the citizens of Virginia's 2nd Congressional District," Schrock said in a statement, according to the AP.
"After much thought and prayer, I have come to the realization that these allegations will not allow my campaign to focus on the real issues facing our nation and region," the statement said. "Therefore, as of today, I am stepping aside and will no longer be the Republican nominee for Congress in Virginia's 2nd Congressional District."
The decision leaves Republicans scrambling to find a replacement before Friday's deadline. The GOP is widely expected to retain the seat in eastern Virginia, which is the home base of conservative televangelist Pat Robertson.
The party planned a meeting Tuesday in Virginia Beach to select a new nominee.
State GOP chairwoman Kate Obenshain Griffin issued a statement thanking Schrock for his service.
"It is now important for Virginia Republicans to unite behind our nominee and work hard to ensure the 2nd Congressional District continues to be represented by Republicans," the statement said.
