Have any of the Democratic candidates had any improprieties that we know of?
This almost came up during Hardball when they were talking about all the wives that the Republican candidates have had. Ron Christie, the cross-eyed Republican guy, said very incredulously, "Are you kidding? Let's talk about the Democrats!" but was then cut off before he could say anything.

Do any of the Dem candidates have any skeletons like adultery in their closet? I can't think of any.

1. He was probably reaching for The Clenis
And Tweety just didn't want to go there again.

They are going to dig up anything and everything if they can..
They will bring up Bill Clinton over and over again, but it will be weakend by the Newt admission he was cheating the same time he was going after Clinton.

Newt Gingrich the man that left his wife for another woman while she was in the hospital fighting Cancer. Make posters of this my friends and throw it in their faces everyday.

2. I just wonder who, in their life, hasn't
done something that they are ashamed of. Maybe we should have a National Confession Day and get it over with!

4. Richardson Has Grabbing Hands
at least, that's the rumor I've read. But supposedly he does it to men and women, which probably means he's just a toucher. Still, you know how that could be spun. IN some ways, though, that could work in his favor.

I think if they wanted to throw any charges at Edwards, they would have done it in 2004. That's not to say he couldn't be accused of doing something since then, but I doubt that would have real traction. I think he's clean.

Obama has supposedly confessed his "sins" although others could come up. I'd be willing to believe he screwed around before marriage, but hey, I'm sure many of us "played" - I bet he keeps his marriage vows. And remember that nasty business in 2004 about Ryan. If Obama had dirt, I think it would have come out then.

If Hillary screwed around many Liberals would consider it turn about, fair play. Conservatives aren't going to vote for her anyway, they already act like she eats babies for breakfast, charges of adultery are minor.

I don't know enough about the others.

8. Obama had traffic
violations when he was young. How many traffic violations equal adultery? five? ten? twenty? fifty?

13. Yeah, I stand corrected
It was parking violations rather than traffic violations but he did receive two in one day. He probably double parked so he could pick up a pack of cigarettes. I hope my behavior when I was 19 is never made public. If you are running for president I suppose it is all fair game but geesh!
