I picked Weiner. Edwards was married a long time - his wife developed long term cancer - he had a different type of stress
and baggage - his relationship with Elizabeth was
quite complicated, as she herself admitted to.

Weiner on the other hand, hasn't
been married yet a year, and he's been pulling his text show and tell antics for a while - a real slime bucket from
the get go of "I do".

Which Rs have been in the news recently for sending pictures of their junk to random women? Or using campaign funds to hide their affairs had while their wives were dying of cancer? I'm an equal opportunity D-bag basher, would be happy to add them to the poll (if I can).

Let's put Newt on the poll, for ditching his cancer-stricken wife and having an affair while scorching Clinton for same. Deal?

Neither. They're men. It really isn't surprising. But as someone else said, Edwards' situation is much more complex. He wasn't happy in that marriage from what I have heard. And even though people say that men should leave instead of cheat, he would have still been dragged over the coals if he left his cancer stricken wife to marry another woman.

These two certainly meet the description in the title. "Wide stance" meets the description of the most comical attempt to explain yourself.

I picked Edwards. He was in a long-term relationship, his wife was ill (and yes that makes it worse), he had three other children to think about (two of them very young). He has an affair, possible covers it up with campaign funds, hides his own child and tries to pass it off as someone else's, and, oh, stupidest thing ever for anyone--makes a sex tape.

Weiner just reminds me of a little man who never got any growing up. Now he's in a position of some power and, naturally, woman are going to cross his path and even flirt with him because of his position. He's like a kid who was held back from the candy shop and now he's set free in there and can't control himself. He's stupid and out of control. And then has the nerve to have media circus and lie about it.

But Edwards was the most hurtful to more people.

Ummm, how about current events? 10-15 year old news for both Clinton and Grinch. I agree though, I don't respect either of them, they are in the running for the D-bag title.
