You have done all you can for the good people of Iowa, but it's up to them now, because anyone interested in the undernews got the point the first 97 times you wrote about it. I have heard "confirmed'' sex rumors - all or none of which may be true - involving most of the presidential candidates (and you're not going to believe this, but in one case, a candidate's spouse!). So if a scandal-free general is the goal, should we go with Kucinich and Romney and be done with it? Or insert a V-chip in all suspected action pants? I know my own capacity to be shocked by power affairs is not all that it should be; after Stephen Hawking left his wife for his nurse in 1995, I concluded no marriage is immune. Except perhaps that of George W. Bush, home every night with his wife and his favorite pillow. But, as they say in French-founded Des Moines, ca ne me regarde pas.
