Lawyer: IMF chief denies NYC sex-assault charges - Yahoo! News: "NEW YORK – Dominique Strauss-Kahn's reputation with women earned him the nickname 'the great seducer,' and not even an affair with a subordinate could knock the International Monetary Fund leader off a political path pointed in the direction of the French presidency. All that changed with charges that he sexually assaulted a maid in his hotel room, a case that generated shock and revulsion, especially in his home country.
Unless the charges are quickly dropped, they could destroy his chances in a presidential race that is just starting to heat up. The IMF, which plays a key role in efforts to control the European debt crisis, named an acting leader and said it remains 'fully functioning and operational' despite Saturday's arrest."
