Why Isn't it news if a Hill Repub had a M/F affair? Remember Clinton?
There must be a gold mine of Repub quotes from the Clinton/Monica scandal era that could be replayed now. The party of "family values" was going to restore 'morality' to the WH. Remember?

So when a Republican pooh-poohs his past M/F affair, why is it not an issue to his party's constitutency?

In the case of Newt Gingrich, he served his wife with divorce papers while she was in the hospital, and eventually married another woman. Yet he is hailed as the ideal candidate for President by the Repubs?

There is a definite disconnect here --especially when you hear RW Conservative Fundi Leaders encouraging their followers to cast their votes for the party of "family values."

2. Question for you: Who controls most of the broadcast media?

3. An effective Ad might be ... pic of Bush/repub Monica scandal quotes
I'll bet there are quotes from the Repubs that have already been indicted and/or pled guilty, or resigned from Congress.

5. Bah! M/F affairs aren't spicy enough for my prurient ears!
They're so late 1990's.

I've become desensitized and need something with a little more kink. Male on Male is what's hot in the 2000's. This will be followed with Man on Dog in the 2010's.

That's the natural progression of things. Just ask Rick Santorum.
