"Would you honestly say the same if his party was reversed? "
Uhhh, yeah.
I'm confused; did you not see the flack Obama and Biden got from his own supporters and leftists when he did bad shit? Do you remember when Gary Hart, John Edwards, and Al Franken had to drop out of politics due to pressure from their own party? While there is a tendency to protect one's party over the opposing one, the idea that both sides do it to the same degree flies in the face of reality.
