Favorite password: cody.stewart@mail.house.gov: iConstituent

Obviously this leak is bad, but I think it's also humanizing. Staffers are people.

Curiously, more three people have the password Iconst!tu3nt, and one more that looks like a garbled version thereof. I wonder why five different people are using near-identical passwords - a default of some sort?

Iconst!tu3nt x3

iConstit*09

iConstituent

I feel bad for the people whose passwords were leaked, but I'm happy to see that there's (as far as I've seen so far) terribly embarrassing among the passwords. (Edit: okay, I was wrong on this one. notalentassclown3, Fuckface^1, poopypants1, DallasSucks10! and 1044shit, I'm looking at you)

Also funny: Senatebound2012!

Looks like iConstituent is a CRM that they probably all use.

Yep

>NOTE: FOR THE PURPOSES OF BEING FAR TOO GENEROUS WITH YOU GUYS, WE HAVE REMOVED SOME OF THE PASSWORDS AND SHUFFLED THE ORDER OF THE REMAINING ONES. THESE ARE ALL CURRENT, VALID CREDENTIALS BUT THEY ARE NOT IN THE ORIGINAL PAIRINGS. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO SPONTANEOUSLY DECIDE THIS RESTRAINT WAS UNJUSTIFIED.

Some are pretty easy to guess who they belong to. like TX32republican!
