First, it's not hypocrisy if you do it and resign. It's hypocrisy when you do it and try to hang onto your job, like Vitter or Ensign.

Secondly, it's a pretty mild hypocrisy given that Repubilcans aren't really on a crusade to stop adultery. Contrast that to Democrats and their pillorying of business and favoring of high taxes. Then look at what liberals actually do: avoid taxes, and make $315 million selling a website to AOL, which was built by writers who don't get paid.

Huffington: $315 million. Writers: 0

Well, the Republicans of the 90s certainly made a big deal about Clinton's adultery. Ensign was one of them.
