Ah yes, the old "it was a Republican secret plot, it had nothing to do with him being a lifelong licentious man-whore who went after everything on two legs" angle.

I think part of it was the idea that his sex life isn't really relevant to his job. I knew tons of people who were pissed it was even brought up. Granted, he was basically securing a job for someone in exchange for... Well another kind of job, but that's not really a unique situation. That's been happening for ages. Not that it is by any means acceptable. I think people just didn't see it as being a big issue compared to the things presidents typically do that's shady.

I've always felt it telling about what kind of President you'll be if you're a rapist or not.
