Well, it wasn't with a prostitute, and he didn't possibly break any Federal laws on structuring, and he and his wife have reconciled.

If they have already reconceiled, what is the point of bringing this up??? Especially how shaken is the state already on this matter.

Probably to get it out in the open instead of having it exposed by the media.

I've been saying this for years now, if a person wants to go into political office they'd better know by the time they're 10! And from then on, tow the lie. No lying, no cheating, LOL!

They're all crooked.....or so it seems like.

I get it now. Now we're getting more used to these scandals. Clinton was almost impeached 10 years ago, but today it's normal as the air we breath.

Clinton was impeached not for the affair, but for purjury and obstruction of justice

It was not the act that got him into trouble, but the coverup

Saw on the news that he and his wife had affairs at the same time when their marriage was stuggling and it was bought out by a news paper so the couple went and had a news conference to explain what happened.

Thank you Derek. A lot of people seem to forget that.

Time management and prioritization, baby!

I run a successful small business, get 7-8 hours of sleep a night, and still have several hours a day of quality time with my wife and daughter. :)

I think there should be a new rule in place:

All future politicians must be single! And celibate (oops, that's two)....

LOL!

Absolutely. Our senior senator is a bachelor. Anytime you bring him up people always mention, "He's gay, ya know?"

He may be, but I couldn't care less.

The same is often said about Florida governor Charlie Crist. Personally I don't care, so I wish the hatemongers would drop the rumors.

I love to ask people why they think Sen. Graham is gay. One of the things they usually point out is that his name is Lindsey. That shows the intellectual capacity of some people.

When the personal lives of our politicians come into public view, we usually forget about what is important, the issues. Of course, if the politician has a corrupt personal life, then there is a problem. But if you're gay or a womanizer or anything like that, if you stay on the side of the law and you're good at your job, I don't see a problem. Some of our greatest presidents of all-time had many adventures but they kept their head above water and a firm vision.

Being married doesn't mean one isn't gay. Ask certain Idaho Republicans or New Jersey Democrats.
