    David Duchovny +sex addiction+ Daily Mail tennis instructor affair rumour+pending court case+ Daily Mail retraction of rumour (sort of) +Tea Leoni+Billy Bob Thornton+358 variations on a '' LIFE IMITATES ART '' headline and subsequent viral publicity for Californication= biggest ratings ever for Showtime.


    That's what you call an an efficient sex scandal.

    Or, a load of shite. Depending!

    I still haven't forgiven the Edwards. I'm sorry she has cancer and I think I have loved her above all political people ever--true warmth and smarts. But that they went ahead and ran that jackass for Prez is beyond goddamned stupid and irresponsible to me. After what Clinton went through you just don't effing go there.

    @Banjo Kitten: I'm just glad he wasn't on the ticket or anywhere near the front runners when the scandal broke. Although John clearly doesn't have much power on his own, on a ticket, that scandal might have wrecked the Dems chances.

    @Banjo Kitten: Yes. It was a relief that he dropped out. I think he still doesn't quite see that he's a dog. And I partially blame Elizabeth for protecting him from that knowledge at least publicly.

    There's still time left in the year for scandal #11. I think I can pull it off.

    @FarleyPapus: surprisingly (and not surprisingly) that did not get as much mainstream coverage. white America don't know or care who Swizz Beatz is, but you would think that it would go public on the strength of Alicia's good girl image.

    Sorry, swap #1 with #2. A governor is not a presidential candidate, and Silda does not have cancer. It's a matter of proportion.

    @Sproing: Yeah, but Edwards' affair kept him from advancing politically where he might not have advanced in anyway, whereas Spitzer's affair not only cost him the highest office he'd yet earned, but was so high-profile, due not only to its cost but also to its patent illegality, hypocrisy, and head-scratching stupidity, that his political career is way more over than Edwards, which had arguably already hit a wall.

    @Bulkington: How did Edwards's affair keep him from advancing politically? Wasn't he already out of the race when the story finally broke?


    To me, the whole "I only cheated on my wife while her cancer was in remission" reeks of the ultimate smarm, and out-sleazes Spitzer naked except for black socks.


    As someone else alluded to, Vito "The Cheato" Fosella blew up his career with a DWI arrest that wound up revealing his second family.

    @The One: You're right. My bad. But again: what did it cost him? He didn't lose office, for which he had sworn to uphold the law, by breaking a law he had prosecuted people for by way of earning his way to the office he lost, and (as far as we know) he wasn't serially cheating on his wife with sex workers whom he begged to let him fuck without a condom.

    @Bulkington: It may have cost Edwards the chance to be Obama's Attorney General, or even yet another run for the White House.


    Using his family to show what a "great family guy" he is while cheating on his wife is bad enough, but cheating on her while she has breast cancer repulses just about everyone. And people remember that shit.


    Then again, he, Spitzer and Fosella all got what they deserved.

    What about that one guy who was doing his 18 year old secretary and was paying her in expensive art to keep her around or some shit..? Can't remember the name (obvs!) but he was one of those notable business dudes.
