"There's absolutely no comparison between the two fact cases."

I agree that these particular comparisons do not line up. Personally, I have a high regard for people who meet their inner demons head on and deal with them.

It is no secret that Bush sowed some wild oats in his youth, as did clinton. Bush has grown to be a different man now, having struggled to change and develop a strong character. clinton (and hillory) claimed to have worked through his issues prior to taking office but...oh well.

Theoretically, there are those who are given the silver spoon at birth and never have their metal tested. I wouldn't support a leader who didn't have a history of struggling and winning against his opponents as well as demonstrating that he had developed some self-discipline around his own sensitivities.

There are those who when challenged, show themselves to be base cowards and liars (clinton); and those who meet challenges to their character and leadership in an honorable manner (Bush, so far).
