Ensign used campaign funds to pay off mistress

Now it's clear that what John Ensign did is far worse than anything Bill Clinton or John Edwards did - even though Ensign was one of the shrillest critics of Edwards and Clinton.

That's because it turns out that Ensign, the Republican senator from Nevada, used campaign money to pay off his mistress - to the tune of $25,000. That's in addition to $96,000 that Ensign received from his parents.

Gee, I'm sure Ensign's campaign donors gave him that $25,000 so he could pay off mistresses.

As for the $96,000, this shows once again that all the Republicans need to do to make things all better is go crying to Mommy and Daddy.

Grow up, John, you big baby.
