Villaraigosa Is No Marion Barry or Bill Clinton

Los Angeles Mayor Villaraigosa is guilty of projecting an image of marriage for political expediency, but he is not an outright cheater like true philandering legends Mariaon Barry and Bill Clinton. He and his wife were separated except for his political career and he had a girlfriend who happens to be a television reporter. Press hounds. Stop it. The man is no saint but he is not the Barry/Clinton twins either.

Powerful politicians, like powerful rock stars, can have their pick of women. Many seem to bend to the temptation. Martin Luther King and John Kennedy had big sexual appetites too. Barack Obaam and Malcolm X appear to be one woman men. Micheal Jackson and Prince seem to like matrimony when it comes to procreating. Maybe powerful women cheat as much as the powerful man-cheaters, but maybe do not get the ink. Hang in there Mr. Mayor. At least you are notthe former DC 'Mayor-for-Life' or the future 'First Gentleman.'
