I believe a person's past indescressions are relevent also. Proverbs 27:19 says As water reflects a face, so a man's heart reflects the man. To me, that verse means that a person's actions and words convey their true character. The personal life has everything to do with the public life and if he/she doesn't want it that way, they can avoid the scrutiny by staying out of politics.
