This notion of a difference between public and private is a false notion to begin with. If a man will cheat on his wife, he'll cheat on his employer. Character is character regardless of context. If a man is dishonest, he can't be trusted regardless of context. The idea that a man (or woman) can be dishonest in private but honest in public is simply idiotic. Dishonest is dishonest, period! A liar is a liar. The fact there are liars in office who haven't been caught is not an argument for placing known liars in office. If a majority of Americans disagree, as Estrich implies, that doesn't change the moral question one bit.
