Again, it's not where he lived, it's the alleged dual citizenship that he supposedly never renounced. To some, that suggests dual loyalties.

Edwards isn't dumb either, nor was Clinton, nor Gary Hart. And Obama didn't think his membership in Trinity Church and his association with Rev. Wright would cause him any problems. In the statement he released, Edwards says, "In the course of several campaigns, I started to believe that I was special and became increasingly egocentric and narcissistic." That may be a more common affliction among politicians than we realized, that they begin to feel invulnerable and can just do anything they feel like doing. It would certainly explain a whole raft of dumb behavior from otherwise very smart people.
