Based on what you've posted and what I've heard about the guy, he was a ****ty governor and comes across more as an opportunist than a public servant. So, I think his detractors on the right should use those things against him and not try to make him an example of sexuality gone awry that will only pander to their base and desensitize the public to even more gay hate rhetoric.
Well said.
