Republican Senator John Ensign confesses to affair with aide

"Absolutely the worst thing I have ever done in my life".

Let me correct that slight error. "Absolutely the worst thing I have ever done been caught doing in my life, at least in the eyes of my political base."

On the plus side, the Republican party actually has to be happy about this. Unlike most of their team: (1) He had sex with a woman; (2) he did not pay. If I were the party leadership, I'd be worried that this guy is actually a spy for the Democrats.
