I'm pretty sure that prior to Monica, everyone knew that he cheated on his wife repeatedly...continually getting elected must be feel
quite enabling
Depends...if it isn't affecting the business...I still feel its between the Husband, the wife, and the intern.....but a situation like that can definitely erode the functioning of an office environment....if thats the case then it becomes a problem.

Do you feel then that a cheater or womanizer shouldn't be considered for office?

my personal opinion is that if someone can't be honest in the most basic arrangement, marriage, and can "cheat" on their spouse and then look them in the eye each day as if nothing is happening and cause the kind of pain that follows when the truth comes to light, then they are likely capable of much worse given power through an elected office..so, it is a problem for me when it is discovered about a candidate as much as and probably more so as if they cheated on their taxes, were involved in questionable dealings or with dubious characters...it all goes to character ...

don't know, he's a serial cheater and therefore fundamentally dishonest with people that he loved enough to wed...if you are #3 do you really think "you're the one"?...not good, guess I'd have to determine who is more fundamentally dishonest...would be a tough call...
