It was awful when Democrats used the "Judge Not Lest Ye Be Judged" jargon when defending Clinton. I find it worrisome that some Republicans are using it to defend a guy who boasts about "gang-bangs."

It is beginning to have nasty tones of "Our rapist is better than your rapist." If political discourse has been cheapened to this level, we have more fundamental problems than who should be governor of California or what party should be in power. The mentality of moral relativism is poisoning everyone -- not just those on the left.

He boasted about gang-bangs a long time ago. We have all changed in the past 26 years. I never cared about Clinton's PAST, it was his present that bothered the majority of us. If he had grown up, changed (as G.W. Bush & Arnold S. and most of us) then his past would have been irrelevant. As it seems that the former Mr. Universe's past should be at this point. But of course you will argue about it forever, forgetting the REAL issues facing California and the entire nation.

If you have documentation that Schwarzenegger raped anyone, you should present it here for public comment or contact McClintock's or Bustamante's campaign with it.

I submit that the mentality of "Perfect is the enemy of the good" is even more insidious in this election. Holding out for "perfect" is going to get you Cruz Bustamante as your next governor.
