Republican Field Leads in Divorces

Former New York Mayor Rudy Giulianiís entry into the Republican presidential campaign "gives the emerging GOP field the edge over the Democrats in the number of divorces or annulled marriages," according to Cox Newspapers.

"The GOP has long touted itself as the party of family values, but its developing 2008 presidential field has recorded four divorces and one annulment, compared to three divorces among the Democrats."

"In addition to Giuliani, who has had one marriage annulled and another end in divorce, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich is twice divorced and Sen. John McCain of Arizona has one divorce. Among the Democrats, Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio has had two divorces and Sen. Chris Dodd of Connecticut has one."
