Compare and Contrast

Republic of T on Herman Cain and Eddie Long:

Both Long and Cain were on the “down low,” while pretending to be upstanding. Yet they led others to look askance at someone like me. And for a long time, they got rewarded for it, and may yet be forgiven for it. Herman Cain will probably be rehabbed to Fox News. Long will return to his pulpit or find another one somewhere else.

Current largely warranted assumption is that those making a Major Deal of how anti-gay or pro-"family values" they are have sex scandals waiting to go public. The more vocal the politician, the more likely that seems to be.
