Default Re: And another one withdraws.

I think this level of transparency is so good. While it is certainly curious how many of these politicians have tax skeletons in their closets (?), I find it refreshing that they are actually withdrawing as opposed to the horrible scandals we are all used to. We all remember the cover ups and denials that we saw so much of in the last few years. I recall Obama, who wasn't even guilty of any crime, saying "I screwed up" with the whole Tom Daschle incident. Tom screwed up, yet he took the brunt of the blow. Despite the crimes and atrocities commited by the previous administration we never once heard that. Ever. No apology, no admission, just arguing and fighting. This early tomfoolery is very telling, as it shows that this admin. will tackle problems head-on when they arise, as opposed to burying their heads in the sand. Finally, a president who actually understands the word "responsibility" and, one who can spell it too!
