Two can cherry pick that data.

Arnold Schwarzenegger (affair and love child, did not resign)
Story broken after he left office. Nice try

Vito Fossella (affair and love child, did not resign) Forgot the DUI as well. Pulled himself from the 2008 race. Nice try.

Larry Craig (lewd conduct, did not resign) Agreeed. Served remainder of term after he indicated he would resign. Add this one to the list.

Don Sherwood (affair and abuse, did not resign) Story broke after he lost election in 2006. AP story Nov. 3, 2006. Nice try.

Steven Latourette (affair, did not resign) Who what? no story is observable in a two page look via Google.

Henry Hyde (affair, did not resign)
1967 afffair admitted to in 1998. Are you really intending this as an example?

Dan Burton (affair and love child, did not resign) Agreed. Add him to the list. His affair was chronicled in Vanity Fair 1998.

Helen Chenoweth-Hage (slept with a married man, did not resign) So? Well prior to office. Like the 1967 affair previously noted you really want to go there?
Ken Calvert (solicited oral sex from a prostitute, did not resign) Put him on the list as his infedility was chronicled while in office. Further he was a chronic CREW member.

Clarence Thomas (sexual misconduct, did not withdraw) Alleged. Whether one believes or doesn't the Anita Hill testimony was unconfirmable.

Don Crane (underage sex with pages, did not resign) Dan Crane. Reported in 1983. Was Censured by leadership. Lost upcoming election.

Compare-contrast to Gerry Studds. Reported at the same time similar underage page sex scandal (albeit same sex but who cares). Censured, re-elected until 1997.

Jon Hinson (exposing himself to a police officer, did not resign) Yes he did resign. April 13, 1981.

Robert Bauman (soliciting sex from an underage prostitute, did not resign) Story broke on October. He checked himself into an alcholics clinic and immediately lost the election of November. I think this amounts to resignation.

John Schmitz (affair and love child, did not resign) A reprehensible human being worthy of inclusion on the list considering the party did not cause him to resign.
