Are you blaming voters for indiscretions of elected officials?

Why comdemn the voters of a state who elected a man who had no prior history of any bad acts and actually stood for prosecution and punishment at the highest level? Yes, he is now a hypocrite, but do voters have crystal ball?
And are you blaming Hillary for her husband's indiscretions? Do you base ability to run government on any level on whom someone sleeps with?
So, what about the state of Idaho who brought you Larry Craig? Should we start wiretapping all elected officials of that state too? One bad act equals condemnation of all?
I am not at all condoning what Spitzer did. One thing I can't stand is a hypocrite. If he broke the law, he should be punished and suffer any repercusions. Obviously his family is suffering. His wife looked as if she aged 10 years overnight.
Anyhow, I could care less who elective officials sleep with (within the law) as long as they do their job and don't tell me who to sleep with.

i think voters
vote for those candidates who have more or less the same morals the voter has... not sure it has to do with religion.. I for one like Mike Huckabee. I'm a Christian. I don't necessarily like him only because he is a Christian but because I believe he shares the same value system and I agree with most of his ideas.
Sounds like he's blaming everything that's wrong in HIS life
Will he go with you to see a marriage counselor? It's time he faced up to HIS issues - being overly controlling, emotionally abusive, holding you to impossible standards then blaming you for not meeting them.
If he really wants to start over, the first step should be marriage counseling, AT LEAST once a week, twice would be better. If he won't agree to that, tell him to take HIS half of the equity and get out. And don't let the door hit is @ss on the way out.

Africa's 1st female president was elected in 2006.
(January of 2006) "Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf has been sworn in as Liberia's president, making her Africa's first elected female leader.
Loud cheers greeted her inauguration, with US First Lady Laura Bush and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice among those at the ceremony.
Mrs Johnson-Sirleaf says her top challenge is to maintain peace, law and order after 14 years of civil war."
