I would agree except the woman with whom he had the affair was his subordinate. The mayor has now put the city in a position where they can be sued.

Seems to me she pretty much came out and called him immature, unwise, impulsive and dishonorable. I'm not sure it gets much more hostile than that.
And I don't think it's a Rep/Dem thing. Seems to me that Giuliani got a pretty easy time of it for being a horndog, too, didn't he?
Maybe you're comparing it to cases like the preacher in Colorado? Those guys got raked over the coals, not for being horndogs, but for being lying hypocrites.
