Political Riddle
Why do you suppose:
Let's see now...in the field of GOP candidates, declared and potential, Southern Conservatives have to choose between....
An twice-married, admitted adulterer who's going to be 72 in 2008...
An thrice-married adulterer....
A thrice married Italian Catholic adulterer (and occasional drag queen) who's wife has the same amount of marriages...
and then there's Fred Thompson. Twice Married...and the second time to a woman 25 years~! his junior.
While Not a single one of the 2008 Democratic contenders has ever been divorced.
Not one.

Lots of fractured families among the Republican contenders, that is a fact.
I have to hand it to Mitt Romney and all the Democratic contenders.....they have a maturity that the others lack.

Off the top of my head, I think the riddle involves McCain and Giuliani.
Awhile back I mentioned Sam Brownback. Out of the Republican candidates, he comes closest to representing the views that concern my priorities. He is married and father of five children. I have not read of any divorces and adulterous affairs. I do, however, advocate divorce as necessary in some situations, especially spousal abuse and another valid reason being adultery. This election may dwell on hypocrisy more than ever as personal lives are analyzed. I think the smarter ran campaigns, regardless of party affiliation, will be willing to admit their own faults as knowledge becomes public domain. I suspect we all respect honesty and although I don't expect 2008 to produce clean campaigns, L-rd knows that would be refreshing.

PS. I see that you have traded in last month's valley girl gig for the masked Christian crusader.

Brownback's a good guy. Did someone forget to tell Romo his guys weren't wearing their blue jerseys last night?

Define maturity. Would it be Hillary
dismissing and accusing a voter of being a plant for asking a legitimate question? Being advised by a guy
that stuffed stolen classified documents down his pants ? Taking campaign cash from fugitives? Patronizing blacks in church? How about letting your wife throw the punches you won't like John Edwards?

Good points! I find nothing mature about supporting abortion for just any reason in which 100% of Democrats candidiates in this election do.
