Political Punch

And all of this to say...
Bill is going to have waaaay to much time on his hands in the White House if Hillary wins.

Before this is all over the Democrats will end up blaming everything ralted to this scandal on the "Vast Right Wing Conspiracy". And most of the "Dumb Masses" out there will end up believing them.

What's the big deal here. It's not like he was drunk and drove his car off a bridge and a women drowned. On a scale of 1 to 10. This is like a 2 for Democrats. Now, if he had murdered her, that might be serious enough to be censured by his Democratic colleagues.

Here's some info on the Mann Act SC decisions (from Wikipedia):

# Athanasaw v. United States (227 U.S. 326, 328) (1913). The Court decided that the law was not limited strictly to prostitution, but to “debauchery” as well.
# Caminetti v. United States (242 U.S. 470, 484-85) (1917). The Court decided that the Mann Act applied not strictly to purposes of prostitution, but to other noncommercial consensual sexual liaisons. Thus consensual extramarital sex falls within the genre of “immoral sex.”

Yeah, that little K Street babe you take over to Arlington -- MANN Act!

LAGuy... I live in LA. I do believe it matters that he betrayed his wife and broke the law. I may not think that it should be illegal but that does not matter. I don't like the speed limit but I can't argue that because i don't believe in it, it does not apply to me. It has not much to do with prostitution... it has to do with living up to the standards that you have become famous for. If this was Larry Flynt... yah, who cares. But this is different.

As a public official yes its bad but there is a bit of hypocrisy in some it is NY of all places, not that it makes it right what he has done, but NY is not really a beacon of virtue as a city now is it.

Well, you know, the guy was a john. They get the FBI and wiretaps going because the guy paid a prostitute? Yeah, the wifey should be mad, but get a grip, people.

From the apology statement: "Today, I want to briefly address a private matter. I have acted in a way that violates my obligations to my family and that violates my — or any — sense of right and wrong"

He also broke the law... this is not just a private matter no matter how much he says otherwise. This is a public issue... does he feel as the supreme executive of NY, that he is above legal scrutiny. I am sure that the voters of NY beg to differ!

LA they are all pretending to be so shocked about it because he got caught, but am sure many who are playing that oh my look what he has done, probably at one time have done the same thing.

I can't believe the people of NY care about a visit to a prostitute. Here in California we are not nealy as uptight about sex. NY isn't Kansas or Idaho, where they think you have kinky s*x if you leave the light on. Most of us have long since left the seventeenth century and the fourth grade.

What does any of this have to do with Hillary?

Spitzer is a democrat so to me he is a disgrace to the party on a whole and not just one individual.

If you are going to hang his actions on Hilliary you may as well hang some on Obama also because they are both running in the democrat primary under a democrat banner.

Gregg, why do you blame Hillary for something that her husband did, that is ridiculous. It is not her fault that men are such dogs.

Hillary refrains from commentary on her endorser's escapades.

She can't condemn his behavior for she accepted all of her old man's escapades, and still does.

A woman without a moral ground. And for that very reason not fit to be President of The United States.

He does not believe in taxing us all to death so that Big Government can take care of all our needs. He does not believe in cutting and running from our strategic interests in the Middle East. I think we all know his stand on many things. Why concentrate on him when he is going to be the Rep Nom... we still don't know who the Dem Nom will be... that's why so much press on them

haha, this one is funny.

Okay, it's America. We're in really, realy, bad shape. There's a presidential election going on. Except the press only covers 2 candidates - Clinton and Obama. In the meantime, John McCain flip-flops on the war, sings songs about bombing another sovereign nation, reverses a career-long position on torture, and what do we get? Nothing. There are three people in this election. It's time to start reporting on all of them. If you can't start with the obvious questions, start easy. What does he believe in?

This one doesn't deserve comment.
