He cant even man up about it. And he wanted to be president? What a load, he and Sanford both.

How come republicans cannot find some actual men to run for office instead of these preppy man boys. What is going on to make republican voters vote for these schlubs?

Anyone have any ideas?

Definitely of public interest though. The problem is when most of a party’s platform consists of religious incantation and family values, the hypocrisy of some of those most verbal on these issues becomes a matter of interest.

People have affairs, people feel guilt about the affairs. This is the type of stuff that keeps good people from running for office.

I am not suggesting that all payments as hush money should be covered up. It is just a concern that I have. Gary Hart,had an affair he was dropped quicker than a frog after the revelation of the same. Why did that matter?
