Driving when you're drunk means you're risking killing other people. And the man was 30? That makes it seriously serious. And so does trying to ciover it up when you're making a pitch for being mister honest-and-clean.

Now I imagine the Bushaholics will be charging round like blue-arsed looking for an equivalent thing about Gore. But it'd have to be something involving putting the lives of other peiople at risk to count. Personal stuff like illegal drugs or drinking to excess (when not behind a wheeel), or being a stupid teenager, wouldn't meet the bill.

It could just get a bit interesting. I can never understand why people have such a down on "negative campaigning". It's what stops everyone falling asleep.
