i in her bid to become speaker 
of the House.Two years earlier, the DCCC canceled all ad support for 
Florida Rep. Tim Mahoney who was accused of having an affair with 
a former aide and then paying her to keep quiet. It was 
later reported he also had an affair with a second woman around 
the same time. Ironically, Mahoneys political career had taken off after 
he replaced Republican Rep. Mark Foley who himself had a very public 
fall from grace after admitting to exchanging sexually explicit messages 
with an underage boy.Sanfords well-known scandal involved his extramarital 
affair.He first made scandalous headlines when he told staffers he was going 
to hike the Appalachian Trail but instead was discovered having the affair. 
Sanford admitted to seeing his mistress on a 2008 taxpayer-funded trade 
mission to Argentina.He ended up paying $74,000 to settle the ethics charges 
against him and was working toward reviving his political career, having 
just won the GOP primary in the special election race.But court documents 
released this week show that Sanfords ex-wife, Jenny, filed a complaint 
with police on Feb. 4, accusing the former governor of trespassing. The 
couples 2010 divorce agreement says neither one can be at the others 
house without permission and that seemed to be the last straw for 
his NRCC backers. In 1976, the DCCC reached its boiling point with 
then-chairman Rep. Wayne Hays after The Washington Post quoted a secretary 
for the Hous
t 
a number of ethically troubled Republicans, and said the NRCC best be 
ready to walk away from theses scandal-plagued Republicans next.But the 
long list of political and ethical wrongdoing isnt confined to one party.Democrats 
are up to their ears with controversial candidates, Republican strategist 
Ron Bonjean told FoxNews.com. Before he (Ferguson) throws a stone, he should 
probably stop and realize he lives in a glass house.Calls to Ferguson 
for comment were not immediately returned.Both Republicans and Democrats 
have been battling bad behavior from their candidates for decades and have 
had to choose who to support and who to cut off.Despite Thursdays 
statement, the DCCC has found itself in the same position before.In June 
2011, DCCC Chairman Steve Israel, for instance, called on New York Rep. 
Anthony Weiner to step down from his congressional seat after he was 
caught and then later admitted to sending sexually suggestive pictures of 
himself to women.Anthonys inappropriate behavior has become an insurmountable 
distraction to the House and our work for the American people, Israel 
said at the time. With a heavy heart, I call on Anthony 
to resign. I pray for his family and hope that Anthony will 
take time to get the help he needs without the distractions and 
added pressures of Washington, D.C.In October 2010, Tennessee House candidate 
Roy Herron said the DCCC was pulling funding support after he said 
he wouldnt support Rep. Nancy Pelos
