Yes, because Salon has the best interests of GOP voters in mind

I can’t remember this much concern over the sex lives, and extra marital affairs of Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, TED Kennedy. Chris Dodd, Barney Frank,.......

Would this not also apply to the ‘charade’ that is the life of Hillary Rodham Clinton?

Its just a matter of time, with all of the tabloid for pay news sources out there, the Cruz mistresses are coming like Tiger Woods...and getting paid!

I agree, but after months of Cruzlims and Trumpbots submitting lib sources when it suits their candidate, I’ve given up complaining about it. All I can do is not do it myself, and in that I have been successful!

This is something we need Huckabee to handle. He’s never like Ted anyway, and would certainly ‘frown upon’ on reports from last week.

you quote from Salon for BARF ALERTS or SATIRE.

Not to back an argument.

“When is an affair just an affair? And when is someone’s private sex public business?”

Basically, Salon’s answer is “When they’re a Democrat, it’s just an affair, when they’re a Republican, it’s public business”.

I didn’t even read the article, but I would bet money that is what their conclusion boils down to.

I am sitting with frustration wondering when the next foot will drop on the Cuban Mistresses scandal. I thought that this week it would be a tsunami rolling through the Cruz campaign, permanently swamping it in hypocrisy.

Has anyone seen anything new on this case?

The old double standard is still at play here.

When it’s a liberal politician who is caught with his pants down, then oh well. It’s nobody’s business.

But when it’s a conservative? What a loser hypocrite, right?

But the truth is - democrats are expected to be liars and cheaters. Conservatives are expected to adhere to the higher standard.

As soon as Ted derails Trump on the 1,237 delegates, Cruz is going to be destroyed. It will leave Cruz “toxic” at the convention.

I really don’t know how much the sex thing is going to matter but, as a Trump supporter, I don’t put much stock in what Salon has to say.

This again. It amazes me that people believe the stories in the National Enquirer.

The National Enquirer told us that “Bungling Surgeon Ben Carson Left Sponge in Patient’s Brain! (October 7, 2015). They also informed us that “Homewrecker Carly Fiorina Lied About Druggie Daughter” (Sept. 23, 2015).

And there’s this: “…Trump and Enquirer CEO David Pecker have been friends for years. “They’re very close,” said a source close to the Enquirer.” I’m not saying that Trump got these stories written, but I’m sure that the CEO is doing his part to help his friend Donald Trump.

Weren't they the people who said at the beginning of October that Hillary Clinton had only six months to live?

Well, now it's the end of march. Time! *click*

Liberals know who the liberal in the race is and will print any thing to destroy his opponent.
