Ladies men

Here’s the problem with current standards in American politics: In order to think you’re competent enough to run for state-wide or national office, you kind of have to be an arrogant, overly-self-confident, extroverted prick. Which, if you think about it, almost exactly describes a womanizer.

There are therefore two ways to avoid losing an entire class of political Golden Boys to sex scandals:

  1. Stop pretending that arrogant, overly-self-confident, extroverted pricks don’t cheat on their wives.
  2. Start electing women for basically everything.

There is, of course, a third course of action, which is: Don’t do anything and just enjoy the goddamn shit out of the whole thing. Which is what I chose to do.
