"Sevengate" in a nutshell
Chasing the Wind sums up the whole Jack Ryan mess about as well as it could be summed up:
So, on one hand a Democrat commits adultery, perjury, then fights to stay in office. On the other hand, a Republican suggests something kinky with his wife but doesn't actually do anything and steps down from running for office.
If Clinton's transsgressions weren't severe enough for him to step down, why was Ryan's suggestion to his wife so bad? Is there a double standard here, or am I not understanding the seriousness of the charge against Ryan?
The former, Michael.
