Disgraced political figure John Ensign

A dapper, youthful looking Republican from Nevada is John Ensign, whose reputation was slightly dented in 2009 when he admitted to having an affair with a woman on his staff.

The woman in question was the wife of one of Ensign's top aides.

After the admission, Ensign and his own wife apparently reconciled. Ensign was one of the many Republican members of the House of Representatives who called for Democrat Bill Clinton to resign in the wake of the Monica Lewinski scandal.

Also, Ensign has opposed same-sex marriage, has been staunchly pro-life and has often espoused the sanctity of marriage and family life.

Ensign, who has been in Congress since 1995, entered politics after a successful veterinary career.
