Which kind of scandal should force a governor from office?

[undeterred]

[branders seine]

1. All except using recreational drugs

and having an extramarital affair

[MrScorpio]

2. Dead hooker at a bachelor party

A sure fire winner

[bluestateguy]

3. Oye vay. Who's in trouble now?

Did another shoe drop for Jim Gibbons?

[undeterred]

8. Nobody that I know of.

There just seems to be wild inconsistency in what is allowed.

[Morning Dew]

4. Having an "R" behind the name is enough for me - That's scandalous. nm

[HopeHoops]

5. Private matters like drugs, hookers, and 2nd lovers aren't our business.

I liked Obama's answer: "Sure I inhaled. That's kind of the point."

9. lies, deceit, and dishonesty are our business - long as they're not lying about things...maybe nt

[HopeHoops]

11. Oh, I fully agree! Throw the assholes out. Why is Sanford still in office?

It isn't about his mistress - it is about dereliction of duty and abuse of public funds for personal use. I don't care if he fucked the Pope - that isn't the issue.

[UTUSN]

6. K&R to undo the usual, incomprehensible UnReKKK!1 n/t

[MannyGoldstein]

7. Years of Unprotected Sex With Prostitutes, Not Telling Wife, is Okey-Dokey

Yes?

[Ozymanithrax]

10. Accepting a Bribe and Embezzlement are felonies...

Upon indictment, the governor (or any political official) should step down and handle his legal defense. A Felony drunk driving indictment should also require the Governor to step down.

Of the rest, it is not my business who a governor hikes the Appalachian trail with as long as he is not using state funds to take that hike. These are all problems that voters can determine require a governors removal.
