Erick Erickson: only Democrats can get away with affairs.

Wingnuts perpetually see themselves as victims held to different standards than the rest of us.

His [Cain's] attorney’s statement reads like a non-denial denial, which would be fine for a Democrat, but after Bill Clinton the GOP tends to get held to a higher standard on these things, rightly or wrongly.

Let's see.

Larry Craig stayed in the Senate after getting caught soliciting BJs in a men's bathroom, David Vitter had sex with prostitutes and is still in the Senate, Newt had too many affairs and wives to count and is now the GOP front-runner -- and Anthony Weiner stepped down after some naughty texts.

Higher standard, my ass.
