Simple question - please stop dodging. If it involves conduct in office, and if itreflects poorly on a politician

Bowser — 3/29/2004 6:58:46 PM (archived)

should it be kept secret? So that there can be no political implications?

Does it make a difference if that person was Republican or Democrat?

Should a politicians conduct in office have any political implications? And if it's bad conduct, or misfeasance, or malfeasance, should that be kept secret so that it will not become a "political weapon"?

You keep referring to "political weapon" over and over. Let's figure out what one is.
