I really don't care what people did 20 or 30 years ago, who they've slept with, etc. I want to know how they stand on the issues that are important to me. PERIOD. Who doesn't have a skeleton in his/her closet?

Just the other day, my uncle said something to the effect that, isn't it a shame that our political system is such that we tear down the candidates so much, by the time one is elected, he is so tarnished that no one is happy?
