[Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Patrick Meehan ? Rep. Patrick Meehan  Reeling From 'Soul Mate' Scandal  Won't Run Again
 Pennsylvania Republican Patrick Meehan  who up until this week had been one of the House Ethics Committee members investigating sexual harassment charges   was revealed Jan. 20 to have paid a taxpayer-funded settlement to an accuser last year.
The New York Times reported  Meehan  had settled with a younger staff member after telling  her   he  was attracted to  her . House Speaker Paul Ryan removed  Meehan  from the Ethics Committee post after the story was published.
 Meehan  has decided to leave the House  sources in Congress and the Pennsylvania Republican Party confirmed Thursday night  saying  he  won't defend  his  seat in November's election.
The Philadelphia Inquirer obtained a letter that it reports  Meehan  sent to  his  campaign chairman:
"Unfortunately  recent events concerning my office and the settlement of certain harassment allegations have become a major distraction "  he  wrote. "I need to own it because it is my own conduct that fueled the matter."

 Meehan  hasn't denied the facts of the settlement  and even told reporters  he  viewed the woman as a soul mate — but insisted the conversation and a letter  he  wrote her wasn't harassment.  He  told member station WHYY: "[I clarified] that I was a happily-married man. I was not looking for any kind of a relationship."
 His  decision not to run again opens up a Democratic-leaning House seat in suburban Philadelphia that already had been high on Democrats' lists of 2018 targets.

[Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Justin Kripps ? PYEONGCHANG  South Korea (AP)  â Justin Kripps and Alexander Kopacz  were thoroughly confused when  they  crossed the finish line.  They  knew  they  had just won an Olympic gold medal for Canada  and were puzzled why the rival Germans were running their way to celebrate.
The closest Olympic sliding race in history had two sets of winners Monday. Canada and Germany will share gold from the two-man bobsled event at the Pyeongchang Olympics after  Kripps  and Kopacz finished their four runs in the exact same time as the German duo of Francesco Friedrich and Thorsten Margis.
"I managed to see the clock that said No. 1 on it "  Kripps  said  as the German team sat to his right after the race. "At first I thought that we won outright  and then these guys jumped over and they were super-excited. And I was like  'These guys are really happy for us.'"
"It's really special that we managed to come out on top and tie with such a good team "  Kripps  said. "We pushed hard from the first heat to the last and in general I thought we executed better as we went ... and we needed every bit of it  too."
 Kripps  finished no lower than fourth in every two-man race all year and was the World Cup overall champion. Friedrich was first or second in each of his last five races. Lochner ended the regular season by winning consecutive medals. Walther was one of only two pilots with multiple two-man victories this season. The surprise was Melbardis  who medaled in only two of his most recent 17 World Cup two-man events.
