More power to the kid, but the odds are against his supporting you and the Mrs. in your old age. A friend told me that when she was in (at?) boarding school, she was the only one who could play the piano, and not much at that. Thus she played (and so got to choose) the hymns at the chapel services. And so it came to pass that the only selections heard in her tenure were in the keys of C, D, and F.

I'm not sure one can legitimately state that Clinton or Reagan would handle this better. After all, Iran/Contra and Lewinsky are still household names. Furthermore, one could argue that the scandals facing the Clinton administration helped in passing some second term agenda since the Repubs were wasting all their juice on scandals and not defeating legislation. Just look how the 1998 elections bucked the 6th year trend and went the Democrats way and led to the downfall of Newt. I'm certainly not suggesting any of this was planned by the Obama team, but, with the Repubs overreach on the IRS scandal combined with the media's whining and fact-free coverage of the AP/Rosen scandals, a similar dynamic may be taking shape for 2014. P.S. What was illegal about the targeting of tea party groups? None were denied tax free status and therefore can't claim any real financial loss. Sure it was grossly unethical. But really, is the IRS held in such high regard that this shit is either surprising or has serious legs?
