There have been debates on TV about whether or not your personal life should indicate if you would be a terrible political choice. The men thought not, and the women weighed in to say that if you cheat in your personal life, you will cheat in your public life.

My own opinion is that there are various kinds of cheating. What Schwarzenegger did was hurtful to his family, but through it all, he was devoted to them. Maria only knew when he told her.

John McCain, John Edwards, Newt Gingrich, all cheated on their wives when they had cancer. At the moment in their lives when their wives needed them most, they were “moving on”.

This is a moral lapse that goes beyond philandering. This is sociopathic behavior. That, I believe, is the difference between Arnold and the rest.
