I would argue that the poll almost does not matter but I would like to see the specific question they were asked. If it was just some generic question about people of power running around on their wives then it really missed the chance to bring out how people feel about hypocrites. The issue as far as I am concerned is with character and some level of reasonable assurance that the person in question will act as he/she preaches. (Yeah I know, good luck with that.... but my delusion here is worth holding onto.) The poll probably missed, did not even mention, qualify or otherwise what TheHighForester (who is right) was talking about with...

"However, this particular case has demonstrated that Mark Sanford, who voted to impeach Bill Clinton because that president had "lost the moral authority to lead," is in fact a hypocrite. If he is a hypocrite on this issue, can he be trusted to act consistently when faced with other issues?"
