Allegedly. But in Louisiana, that’s not seen as a negative. Laissez les Bontemps roulet. It wasn’t an old sex scandal that defeated Vitter, it was corrupt insider Derp State RINOs who did not want an outsider Conservative as Governor. THAT was his sin.

You could make the argument against nominating President Trump based on such alleged scandals, too. When the Demonrats decided to put up sex predators for high office and didn’t bat an eyelash, that bar was removed.

My rule is don't nominate anyone with a credible sex scandal or pedophile allegation etc...

Pedo scandal, yes, but sex scandals ? Like I said, with that high a bar, Trump couldn’t have made it through, and we’d have the Empress-Dictator Butcheress of Benghazi now.

Add to that, even if a candidate is squeaky-clean, they can merely float a false allegation and destroy someone with it. Look at Justice Cavanaugh. We could run the Son of God for office, and the Demonrats would allege He was “touching women and children.” These are evil people, and should be treated as such.
