You forgot, Rudy has also been divorced!!! OMG, in an age where 50% of all marriages end in divorce God forbid a divorced man become POTUS.

No, that proves it then. Rudy is NOT a social conservative! Who knew? :-)

Not quite like Reagan, divorced once and then solidly married for over 20 years before running for national office.

Rudy has divorced several times, once messily with a vengeful liberal ex-wife waiting to drop bombshells on him, and has only been remarried for about three years. (I consider this same divorced-in-the-last-10-years to be a strike again Newt too.)

If a pol's personal life has that much messy and ugly upheaval, shouldn't we question why their personal judgement or personal behavior is at fault for so many marital failures (including infidelities)?

| I tend to think this hurts Rudy more with women than men but a lot of men would take a hard look at his divorce record and not like it. OTOH, we have Hillary, flawed by she has Stood By Her Man, probably a positive for her in the end. Hillary also hasn't left her spouse and moved in with some gay guys.
