Yeah character matters--did he not apologize? He divorces his wife but apologizes and he is prolife and is for banning partial birth abortions. What more do you want? You now hold yourself his judge and the one who meters out his punishment? Would not God forgive him ? Did not his son forgive him?--read the bible, it is full of people that God chose that were not the best( check out Saul who later became Paul--this dude Saul actually was pursuing the Christians and imprisoning them)not much in character, least to be chosen-- yet God chose him to do his work. Perhaps this is an opportunity for us to be less judgmental--we need to worry about ourselves and what we do for one another, not what punishment to meet out to others.

dude chill out I prob would vote for him only because the senate is too important but you can apologize all you want but there are consequences and I will not hold it against people who feel morally obliged not to vote for him.

Listen, I am a Southern Baptist Pastor, and everyone makes mistakes, God forgives, and so must we. Mr Hutcheson will stand before God for his problems, but we must be willing to give a man another chance. That is the way of a forgiving and loving God.

Would not God forgive him ?

If somebody leaves his wife and kids, marries another - and says "I'm sorry" -- but doesn't return to his wife and kids, it's not clear that his "sorrow" is genuine, or that God forgives. IF you steal a television set, and say I'm sorry, but keep the stolen TV - are you forgiven?
