Does the fact that Rudy was divorced and remarried REALLY matter to Conservatives???? Don't forget that the great Reaganus Maximus was too.

SO WHAT???????

I suspect this is just another Lib MSM trying to derail

It is not just that Rudy is (twice) divorced... it is more about the way he handled his personal life. He was having an affair while mayor and still married to his second wife, taking his mistress to public events, announcing his divorce to the press before telling his wife, etc... Newt would have the same problem if he ran.

Thompson is divorced and re-married, but that is not a big issue for most voters. He and his ex are on good terms, he didn't cheat on his ex while married to her, and in general has treated her with respect despite the fact that they are no longer married. That is one of the reasons his ex-wife is supporting Thompson for President.

It should to any conservative with a brain. A man's character matters when he is taking positions that contradict his record.

Promises mean nothing from a low-life that would parade his mistress out in public while alienating his own children.

But, I guess we've gone from character mattering for Bill Clinton back in 1992 to not mattering at all if the candidate is a Republican.
