If she was a republican, would the media be ripping her for the whole Del Monte thing? I think so.

What Del Monte thing???
Oh that's right, I live in the USA. We never hear a bad word about a Liberal. But even when a conservative resigns in disgrace we hear about it for weeks or months.
American Press. Gotta love 'em.

Yes, and this should be an obvious object lesson for anyone who thinks that there isn't a double standard in the media that favors the liberal side of the political equation.

i would think so. the media does see republican vs democrat, but they know that news is news. if she was a republican, she would still be the first female speaker of the house, and so she would still be an easy target for the media, despite her party.... so yes. definately.

Yes, she'd have at least 1 too many holes if she were an "R" as opposed to a "D".
And if she were an "I", she wouldn't have that position and no one would've heard of her as the media doesn't cover "I"'s.

It's not a matter of Democrat or Republican. It's a matter of the law. Was she dishonest? Is she a crook? If she is, let's find out now.
