That's what happened to get Barbara Boxer into the Senate. Her opponent Bruce Herschenson (sp?) had some minor imbroglio (this was in the 1990s) and the Dems made the most of it. He lost support from the "moralists" and the rest is history. Boxer's on her third term now...

If there's one thing I read about Jesus is that he hated self righteousness. He said there were none good. Too many people think because you cheated on your wife you are somehow not worthy of any kind of leadership. It makes me sick!

The fact is that Bush gave us good judges, tax cuts and has the integrity to fight a war that needs to be fought but most politicians are to afraid to fight because its politically dangerous. Bush needed at least one branch of Congress. The problem is the moralist won't learn their lesson because self righteous people are full of pride and stubbornness.
