well yeah I agree, I may not care for the Clintons or their politics, but I certainly think that its out of bounds to say anything about their marriage. You're right, despite everything that has gone on they're still married and that shows some level of conviction.
Another point I give to them is that it would seem that despite being in the spotlight and some turmoil, they did a decent job raising Chelsea, who seems to be an upstanding young girl. Not mentioning any names but you can just look around at some of the other examples of politicians kids who have strayed. I don't care who your are or your political view, it is not easy bringing up kids today.
