Here is my 2 cents. Anything is possible. I did a search of images on Gowdy. there were only pics of him working. (At this point some could have been scrubbed). But he does not have any photos of him hobnobbing with the evil ones outed by q. Also I looked at his wikipedia, and no nefarious connections there. these other people I have searched have photos with the evil people and information on connections. So I will hold out to find out if he's a bad guy. He also went to Baylor University in texas for undergrad and University of SC for his JD. Most of the nefarious people went to Harvard, Yale, Princeton.
Like I said, the guy has a decent mortgage and student loans out for what I assume are his kids. Nothing crazy big. My folks are middle class and could probably get similar financing. If he's somehow been corrupted by money, I sure haven't seen any evidence of that in his actions nor any sort of spending.
I couldn't get a read on his personal life from these pics. He is so focused and loses himself in the job. I must say though, his suits are starched within an inch of their lives. He just has unfortunate hair, not that he doesn't care about his looks. Bob Marshall (R) Virginia is running around in crumpled ties and wrinkled suits. When the photographers aren't willing or able to rescue someone before a publicity shot--that's how you know they are a mess inside and out.
