The author of this hit piece is trying to draw equivalence between the two adulterers.

Bill Clinton was not hounded while in office because he was merely an adulterer. In an age of political correctness and even having sex with a willing secretary has been frowned upon for decades, it seems odd that the Left would say that it is "no big deal" (only because as NOW admitted, he had the "right", politically correct, position on abortion so he got a pass, "the first grope is free").

If the affairs of Newt and Rudy are going to be top issues (and not just issues designed to turn off the conservative base), then the press must also be willing to hold Mrs. Clinton's feet to the fire and expose her open marriage.

Hillary said in the 1992 election that she wasn't just some little woman standing by her man, implying that she would not tolerate him "cheating" on her. It isn't cheating if it is already an open marriage.

She expected us to believe that she really was in the dark about Bill's affair with Monica until shortly before he went on tv to confirm the event to the American audience.

She said that President Bush lied to her on Saddam's weapons program too.

She seems gulible, always falling for a false bill of goods. Or maybe she isn't so dumb after all and is just telling the public what they want to hear.

At any rate, is this the issue that the 2008 election should come down to? Adultery? If it is, then all of the candidates in all of the parties should be made to take a stand on the issue of extramarital affairs, not just in the workplace.

Actually, I think a complicated marital history on both sides of the ticket would negate the entire thing as a campaign issue. No one would be in a position to make a "first strike".
