Hello Philman, I did not mean to indicate you as dissing Keyes....that response was just a general question, probably should be addressed to the original poster.
I will offer this to you as something to think upon.
If a person running for political office holds themselves to a higher standard than others running for the same office does it behoove those others to drag that candidate down so that they don't have be held up against that person as an example of what a public servant is supposed to be?
And goodness knows the Republicans didn't need another "Dr. No" elected into office.
