Divorces and affairs of Senator John "crash" Mccain
Divorces and affairs of Senator John "crash" Mccain
What we have to look forward to...........
Did Bill Clinton's indiscretions and the heavy media coverage of them create a new template for how we judge presidential candidates (and their wives)? Steve Benen of Washington Monthly says yes -- and predicts that Republicans, much more than Democrats, will suffer in 2008 as a result:
Lurking just over the horizon are liabilities for three Republicans who have topped several national,
independent polls for the GOP's favorite 2008 nominee: Sen. John McCain (affair, divorce), former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (affair, divorce, affair, divorce),
and former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani (divorce,
affair, nasty divorce). Together, they form the
most maritally challenged crop of presidential hopefuls in American political history.
Right now, at least 10 high-profile Republicans are
eyeing the race. If a candidate with an adulterous past
pulls ahead, the stragglers may be sorely tempted to
play the infidelity card--if not openly, then through
theirsurrogates. In 2000, George W. Bush's allies went well beyond raising McCain's affair--they spread bogus rumors
in advance of the South Carolina primary that the
senator had fathered an illegitimate black child. This strategy helped to deliver Bush a key primary victory and,
arguably, the nomination.
But if GOP operatives dangle the infidelity bait,
and the press fails to bite, its importance

Democrats wavering on Hillary for president in 2008

Democrats wavering on Hillary for president in 2008
WASHINGTON (AFP) - Some Democrats are having second
thoughts about Hillary Clinton as their 2008 presidential candidate, wracked by doubts about her cross-party appeal,
and disappointed by her position on US troops in Iraq.
Those reservations were given expression last week at
a forum in Washington of liberal Democrats, where the New York senator was roundly booed when she expressed her opposition to setting a date for withdrawing US troops from Iraq.
"I do not agree that that is in the best interest
of our troops or our country," she said in remarks that prompted a chorus of cat calls at the
"Take Back America" gathering of liberal Democratic activists.
"Her being booed last week had everything to do with Iraq," said political analyst Larry Sabato.
