I actually don’t think that either of their affairs should matter, because politicians LIE it is a matter of fact, they do not tell the whole truth, so if Edwards is going to be judged on the fact that he was not strong enough to not cheat while his wife was battling cancer then McCain should be judged the same way.

The fact of the matter is, that he admitted he lied, and he knew what that would probably do to his career, otherwise no one else would know about it.

I think politics and personal life should not be mixed, period, Clinton was not an amazing president, but he was good, better than Bush, and we all know what he did with Monica.
So I don’t think any politician is exempt from stuff like lies, however, I do believe that they should be judged by their political actions, or by what they claim, politically, not personally, no person is perfect.

McCain’s “clean coal” campaign is more of a lie to me than some affair Edwards had that I really don’t care about,
