Reply #9: I note that Blagojevich has been charged, Spitzer is no longer [View All]

serving as governor of New York, and Edwards dropped out of the race.

In contrast, Bush, Cheney, Condoleeza Rice, et al. are still in office. The scandals in which Bush, Cheney, Rice, et al. are involved are far more serious than those of Blagojevich, Spitzer and Edwards whose scandals involve either megalomaniac plans or sexual indiscretions.

I also note that Senators Vitter and Craig, both of whom were involved in sexual scandals are completing their terms in the Senate.

Moral of the story: Democrats who involve themselves in scandals pay big-time. Republicans who involve themselves in scandals -- not so much.
