If McCain can’t abide by family values, he’d better outsource it to the VP. Mitt Romney will bring economic talent to the ticket, but on a core level, I am most likely to vote for the ticket because Mitt is faithful to his wife and children. That gives me confidence that he will be faithful to me as a voter and to his country.

McCain can’t change his past, but he can choose someone with solid values to represent the future, and more than anyone seriously in the running, Mitt Romney embodies those positive values.

Adultery cast a shadow on a person’s ethics. However, it does not necessarily mean that the offending person would be a bad president unless; the said affair affects tax payers, credibility of the person, the office he/she occupies or the one being aspired for.

John McCain had a well-documented affair on his first wife, with his current wife. He has admitted this in books he has written about his life that he ran around with several different women while still married to his first wife. And don’t forget that he left her for a younger, richer woman who is now Cindy McCain. He then later went on to cheat on Cindy with lobbyist Vicki Iseman.

Vicki Iseman represented telecommunication companies on the Senate Commerce Committee that John chaired. They contributed tens of thousands of dollars to McCain’s campaigns. In return, McCain championed de-regulation for them. He pressured the FCC to uphold marketing agreements allowing a television company to control two stations in the same city. He introduced a bill to create tax incentives program for them. Two times, he tried to advance legislation that would permit a company to control television stations in overlapping markets (an important issue for Vicki’s largest client). If John Edwards’ political career is over, why isn’t John McCain’s? Is John credible enough to be trusted to serve as our next President?
