The distinction I make is the infidelity, sure, but if it's in the past it's forgiveable....once. It's the hypocrisy. I have no use for pols who campaign on their strong social conservative values yet don't live them in their personal life.

It's the hypocrisy that gets them in a situation where their votes are manipulated.

Let that person who is without sin cast the first stone.
I for one am not looking for perfection in a current or future political leader; I just want someone who will put the Constitution first, last, and always.
Hypocrisy in my opinion is the multitude of small sins we all commit every day, and shrug off as not that important.
Human beings make mistakes, people are not perfect; all that we can hope for is that our leaders at least try not to commit the same sin or mistake over and over.
Unlike most Lib/Prog/Dem/Transi/Politicians who actively seek out their next sin/error to commit over and over again.
