But, but, I thought character didn’t matter? I thought one’s personal life didn’t matter?

Excellent albeit sarcastic point. They said that about Clinton when he ran for President the first time -- and I recall loudly disputing that issue with friends, family, and various politico's. Then came the Lewinsky scandal and they said, "it's only about sex." Think of all the good things BJ is doing. Well, of course it was very much about an immoral scandal in the Oval Office itself, an intern employee, and he lied to the world about it. And Clinton got every woman in his cabinet to come out and defend him, including Ms. Albright.

So this is now the present day standard of decent behavior, of public honesty, of displayed moral values?
