Those Wannabe Socialites Are Totally Crashing Roy Blunt's "Man of the People" Party

Update: The Post-Dispatch has also picked up the story. "White House party crashers partied with the Blunts? Pic says yes."

Roy Blunt's attempts to reinvent himself as a 'man of the people' do not appear to be going as planned this week.  The Politico:

Here's a picture you don't want to see if you're Rep. Roy Blunt (R-Mo.).

Blunt, who's running for Senate in Missouri, is seen here with his wife, Abigail, posing with Tareq and Michaele Salahi at the 2008 Ambassadors Ball. This inside-Washington shot surely won't help Blunt with his people back home: The 13-year congressman and former Republican whip has found himself with a primary challenger.

The picture accompanies a new story about the couple in Washington Life magazine.

Blunt's response?  He was most definitely on the guest list for the the ball, because, you know, he goes to all the parties.

It's pretty impressive that Blunt and Perlman are at so many Washington parties that they accidentally show up in stories about other Washington partiers.
