Question - 306

Who are these? What controversy resulted?

Answer: Gary Hart was the front runner for the presidential nomination from the Democratic party in 1988. However, his presidential campaign came to a halt when photos of him with model Donna Rice aboard his aptly named yacht Monkey Business surfaced. This was only days after he dared reporters who accused him of infidelity to his wife to follow him and claiming that they would get very bored. Ajinkya, Iam, Hirak, Anshul, Karthik, rajeev, Divya and Srivats got it. Well done.
