A criminal record for a Democrat politician adds to their electability. It's a resume enhancer, kind of like a rapper with a criminal record. A Democrat politician with a criminal record makes the average Democrat voter feel like he's a man of the people, someone they can identify with.
Romney would have got a lot more Democrat crossover vote if only he'd been a chronic drug user at some point in his life, like Obama.

You haven't posted anything similar by a GOP elected official who was elected after federal convictions, jail time, violent behavior, And forfeiture of law license......
Waiting on a post to back up your claim...............

You set up a false competition. It is very unlikely there will be any republican who ticks all the same boxes, simple statistics will tell you that.
But there are plenty of republicans who are just as idiotic, but in different ways.
No, I can't name them, I don't make a habit of following US politicians closely, shoot me down, I'm an easy target I admit.
But, in the UK, there have been scandals about MP's claiming expenses, and the shits have come from both sides of the house, left and right. They are all shits. Some face jail terms.

You made the claim that it goes both ways; you can't back up your claim with an example.....and you call me an idiot who is setting up a falsehood ?
Name an elected GOP legislator who ticks off 2 of the 4 boxes; since you admit there isn't one who covers all 4 !
You are the idiot Essence. Either backup your claim or STFU !
Since you profess your own ignorance on American politics; maybe you should just STFU !

Both sides of the House in the UK, is pretty much the difference between socialist and even more socialist.

Exactly where did I call you an idiot? Reading not your strong point? Nor is statistics?
So you think there is no GOP elected person who is an idiot?
Idiot.
Huckleberry, now there is a GOP idiot, he was a candidate or something wasn't he, or considered it. Presidential, no less. Said completely idiotic things about Obama.

So, you'r at a loss to identify a GOP legislator who checks off 2 of the 4 boxes ?
Again, you liberal retards make a claim then fail to back it up with facts !
Huckabee is a jerk; but he in no way resembles the violent thugs that define Democrats and their Party !
Huckabee doesn't even check off 1 of the 4 boxes........you lefties are complete jack asses !
When it comes to the GOP vs. Democrat thuggery, it DOESN'T cut both ways !

I was hoping some democrats would help me out, but I'm not sure where they have gone nor where their brains are.
It is generally republicans here who initiate all kinds of rubbish, and democrats are exhausted dealing with the crap day after day.
I can;t do their job for them.

And after voting to censure Rep. Charlie Rangle, who is an admitted tax cheat, the Democrats offered up a standing applause on the House floor........
Disgusting.

Corruption is one thing......both parties are corrupt....
But the thug tactics of Democrats and the Democratic party overlooking thuggish behavior is clear.

I am talking about violent thuggish behavior....not corruption...
Essence list for 2012 has 3 dirty Democrats for every 1 Republican; I would say he helped make a case that Democrats are more corrupted, a point I wasn't trying to make but is appreciated.
Thanks Essence.
