Spitzer, I know some of the Republicans were social conservatives but not overly loud ones, they're awful, but Spitzer was a ING BULLDOZER against prostitution and corruption, look at him now.

Craig just because he is from Idaho, and I love to hate him. Tongue

I'm going to go with Foley as it seemed a pretty big, if subtle, abuse of a position of power.  Clinton is just a whore and would have been a whore even if he was just a used car salesman in Little Rock.  Craig's just nasty, but he wasn't abusing a position of power.  McGreevey's pretty low and a close second to Foley, but his faults didn't seem as chronic as Foley's.  Spitzer likes the butt and his wife wouldn't let him have the butt so he paid for it, bad, but there's much worse here.  Vitter again bad, but could have been a lot worse.

These guys aren't all that sleazy. They are gross, but that another thing entirely. John Ford would be a great write in vote as would be Edwin Edwards and Tom Delay. Bill Jefferson is another good choice and so is Bob Toricelli.

^^^^^

Agreed. Being a corporation masquerading as a human being is a lot sleazier than anything these guys did.

Rep. Jefferson, Rep. Murtha, Mayor Daley, and the like beat any of them out, I think...

Though Spitzer was pretty bad with his shakedowns and intimidation, all in the name of the public good.  To be honest, find any politician who wants to increase the scope and power of government, and you'll find someone looking to profit from his position.

You mean cheating on your wife isn't as bad as lying to get into a war, getting thousands of people killed all so you can enrich your defense contractor and House of Saud cronies?

Come on, Opebo.  Stop being a troll.  ;-)

It is somewhere between Craig and Spitzer.  The reason is because they both condemned activities which they themselves engaged in.  I think Craig is worse though because even after getting caught he tried to dance around it.
