Adultery is a negative reflection of a person's character and thus is relevant as a consideration for being elected to public office or continuing to hold that office.

If there are not to be moral considerations in looking at candidates for public office, what list of liars, thieves and swindlers are we left to consider?

And the Democrats retain their adulterers in office while we cast ours out.

I do not condone adultery, but who are we to judge what is between Sanford and his wife?

If she can attempt to reconcile, who are any of us to demand his head?

Odd how Sanford’s record no longer has any meaning, isn’t it?

Sometimes I think that if Jesus himself returned and ran for office, evangelicals would find a reason to oppose him and hold him to a standard they cannot offer themselves.
