70. Question for you
Have you actually been active in politics? Do you not realize that there are people you must associate with even if you don't agree with all they stand for?

I am sure there are very few political figures out there who have not had help from someone who is later deemed to be questionable. The fact is politics is power and a lot of people who involved are there for the power and not for the cause.

Bottom line-the race will be won by the undecideds and new voters. Mostly, they are going to be worried about the economy and the war in Iraq-both of which our Democratic Nominee will have the edge on.

So-my humble opinion? If you think most political candidates don't have to work with people of questionable ethics than you are incredibly naive.
