The infidelities of Elliot Spitzer, Bill Clinton and John Edwards all became public knowledge. Katie Couric asks the presidential candidates why they think prominent politicians cheat.

GOBAMA!

1. I don't want to make comments about it...
because I have unfaithful to my wife" Is what McCain meant to say.

2. It doesn't take much to read between McCain's lines.


(paraphrased)

"What do you think about marital infidelity?"

"Well, I've been an 'imperfect servant,' so I don't judge those who stray."

13. Exactly. I think that's exactly what he was getting at
He has cheated since being with Cindy, but the story hasn't gone public. He was covering his tracks in case it does (or in case Katie had a bombshell to throw at him).

3. "JUDGE NOT" because he's been a lying, adulterous b@stard his whole life.
McCain is SCUM.

6. You are right.
He and many other hypocrite Republicans were attacking Clinton. McCain constantly tries to invent himself or paint himself as some humble person. It is classic Republican strategy. When I do something wrong it is because I am "human" when you (Democrat) do something wrong it is because you are evil. I understand about human weakness although infidelity pisses me off. Hypocrisy though, disgusts me.

7. Add JOHN MCCAIN to the list of ùnfaithful politicians
Or are we supposed to be pretending he never lived with Cindy while married to his first wife.

8. judge not - when it's convenient for ME, judge THOU when I've got the smear video ready

I think it's interesting how awkward McCain looks when he's caught in a never-ending cycle of political mistakes in judgment - and then tries to portray his judgment as 'best for America'. Strike that, it's quite sad actually.

And then there's Vicki Iverson. NYT did not get sued by that report did they? So he's cheated on this wife too. Cannot believe he can still do anyone..new that is.
