Pretty far from "lights out."
Look at the famous Dems who were caught up in that sort of thing: McGreevy? Gone. Gary Hart? Where is he now? John Edwards? Done. Spitzer? Gone. Gary Condit? Gone.
Jack Kennedy and Clinton, yeah I'll give you them. But this latest right wing talking point about how "Republicans don't stand for this sort of thing" is not based in reality.

Add Barney Frank to that list.
Now i'll grant you that it's not as black and white as Steam implied but at least the Republicans look at such infidelities as a negative whereas the Dems generally don't.
