There are tons of good Dems that both sides would feel comfortable with. Frankly its hard to even find people that want to run for office lately. Why? Maybe because EVERYONE has dirt in their past and they don't want it drug out onto nightly news.

OMG someones teenage daughter had sex, and had a mistake. OMG! Take them off the ticket.

OMG someone when to a church and the Pastor has said things in the past that reflect badly on them.

OMG someones husband got a DUI when he was barely old enough to drink OMG.

OMG someone had ties to the muslim religion. OMG

HOW THE FUCK do people expect us to get smart candidates? A SMART person would not run for office. A SMART person is much more likely to be a happy in a job where they can make much more without have the public scrutiny on them.

Its amazing people can't figure out why we can't get good people to run. DUH!!

The people running are human, humans make mistakes. I wouldn't want someone that is a robot and led a perfect life anyways, cause they would not have any good life experiences to draw on for their decisions.
