I see behaviour and performance in the public office for which someone was elected as far, far more important than what they do or do not do in their private life.
If I elect someone I personally do not consider whether they are married, divorced, white or black. You expect a certain performance level along certain metrics. In the US system it seems that someone could balance the budget, secure world peace, and solve global warming...but if the US public finds out that he slept with 5 women while married they would want him out of office. In my view, it's a ridiculous and hypocritical judgement system. And politicians make it worse by running on platforms such as "Family Values" or "Anti Gay" etc. etc. Which should correct themselves first, the Political campaigns or the electorate, is up for debate.
