I hate to keep barking up this tree, but after watching the media explosion over John Edwards' Friday admission of marital infidelity, I wondered why no one was questioning the John McCain on the same topic. It's clear, despite a contrary explanation in his autobiography, that he was unfaithful to his first wife, Carol McCain, with his second wife, Cindy Hensley. He obtained an Arizona certificate for his second marriage before terminating his first, according to an L.A. Times account.
Now I'd like to go on the record now by stating that I care as little about what McCain did 20 years ago in his marriage as I do about what he does with this one. Sexual monogamy would rarely be a deciding factor for me, and especially not in a year with such high stakes. But it still would be nice to see the media hold McCain to the same high standard set for Edwards, or to at least not get so much crap about "bias."
