Years ago, a division was observed between a politician's personal life and public life. People concerned themselves with the policies the politician created, the votes made, and the causes supported. The media, for the most part, didn't pry into personal lives as much as today.
Now it seems we have information about the restaurants that are favored, the personal relationships pursued, the doctors visited, and the parties attended. Soon we'll be hearing about bathroom breaks, I imagine.
Shouldn't we refocus our attention on the politics of our politicians? I mean, their job is to help run a country, not to provide an object of worship. Saints are not required, just good politicians.
