She was married to Kevin Bacon.

Was??? They are still married 19 years! Quite a feat that Republican candidates can’t seem to do. That is one area that Democrats do beat us on is long marriages. I don’t know why that is since we are the party of family values. That has always stunned me.

Uh, You came to that conclusion by comparing one Hollywood marriage to a couple of candidates in a handful of Republican Presidential possibilities and then extrapolating that to both political parties?

Sorry if I don't find that to be a convincing analysis.

Hunter, McCain and Romney have all been married longer than the Bacon's, btw.

How long were the Baldwins married?
Alec Baldwin (19 August 1993 - February 2002) (divorced) 1 child
Ron Snyder (12 October 1980 - December 1988) (divorced)

Scratch them.

Hawn and Russell never married at all.
Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins haven't married yet either as far as I know.
Sean Penn - Robin Wright Penn (27 April 1996 - present) 2 children
Madonna (16 August 1985 - 10 January 1989) (divorced)

How about Angelina Joli and Billy Bob Thorton? Now her new 'partner', Brad Pitt. He and Jennifer Aniston didn't stay married long.

Duncan Hunter married the former Lynne Layh in 1973. Not sure if he is still married to her, but, if so, then that is one candidate that the dems didn't beat.

No, the dems aren't any better at long term marriages.
