biteofpythias:

john edwards never made a commitment to me to be faithful. his wife knew before he ran for president and they decided to run again. none of my business. period.

does it say something about him as a person? yes. have many/most people in marriages also made that mistake? yes. does it make me think he would be a less suitable attorney general? no. advocate for the poor? no.

Just like when Clinton did it; I don’t care about the sexual act itself. It’s the lying that gets to me. Both of these “men” looked America in the eye and lied about it.

Does that make me think he’d be a less suitable attorney general, etc? Yes.

Unfortunately. :(
