This is pathetic and sad on your part, Ronnie. Let's see some consistency, shall we? I think, if this is truly an issue of extreme pertinence, that Congress should perhaps set up an independent, maybe bi-bartisan committee that will investigate the sexual scandals and infidelities of our incumbent and prospective office holders. Good idea, right?

OAO-- Most people don't give a fuck about who Kerry might be screwing, b/c unlike Matt Drudge, UK tabloids, and opportunistic Republicans, Americans have shown a great degree of sophistication in separating a man's public from his personal life.

Conservatives still scream up and down that the real violation in the Clinton scandal was NOT his infidelity, rather, it was his lying under oath. Now they are proving that to be all a ton of horse shit, and they're simply using this as a chance to go after Kerry.

Attack him on his voting record, attack him on his flip flopping on issues (the latest George Will OpEd is a GREAT critique of Kerry's stance on issues), but don't dig up dirt on the man's sexual behavior, unless he has violated the law.

You can use feel good cliches all you like, such as "this says something about the man's character," but that's a lense of judgement that belongs on MANY elected officials, NOT merely John Kerry.
