Eliot Spitzer's successor admits to having affairs
As I have mentioned in the "Suicide doctor plans congressional run" Eliot Spitzer's successor, David Paterson has admitted to having an affair. Both he and his wife had affairs during their time of marriage while it was headed for divorce. Mrs. Paterson says, "A marriage has peaks and valleys... no marriage is perfect. I think we have a marriage like many Americans. Elected officials are really just reflections of the people we represent." I feel that is right, no marriage is perfect, and for her to admit that and stay by her husband's side is admirable.

I find it funny when I see a politician get caught of having an affair in their personal life and all of a sudden everyone is asking for their resignation. Why is this? I have never understood what we must hold politicians to a higher standard then what we hold most of the individuals in our society. Whether they be a politician, a police officer, or a company CEO what they do in their personal life should not affect their job. The only thing that should affect the individuals ability to keep doing their job is their job performance. When is the last time you have seen a company CEO being forced to step down for being in an affair?
