Sanford told Vogue that male politicians become blinded to how infidelity can poison their personal lives and political careers. Really? Who'd have thunk it....

If you dont forgive, you become angry and bitter. I don't want to become that, she said. Now I think its up to my husband to do the soul-searching to see if he wants to stay married. The ball is in his court. If he doesn't give up his Argentine infatuation and beg forgiveness from this good woman, he's a bigger fool than I already think. He's throwing away a gem.

She sounds a little sexist to me. I know plenty of women who have gotten to mid-life only to become casual lesbians. It’s not a guy only thing.

I don’t understand why people who want to screw around get married in the first place. If you want to do that, just don’t get married.

"The ball is in his court. Exactly right. She should not take him back until he brings the fruit of Godly repentance. Should he show any unfaithfulness of any kind, she would have Biblical grounds for divorce.
She has my prayers, and he my imprecatory prayers.

Now who says that Vogue doesn’t give its spotlight to Republicans. Here they are giving lots of publicity to Sanford.
To: meandog
While I don’t know all the circumstances that led up to his infidelity, it is apparent to me that Governor Sanford is a putz.

Most folks don't understand that such poisons the future possibilities of a happy committed relationship. The price paid for abstaining is worth it in every regard.
Especially in terms of Legacy and Grand Children:)

Respectability. Bachelor politicians don't get elected; they have to appeal to the families to get votes. Besides, a lot of men are pressured all the time to marry. Everyone keeps asking Clooney if whether or not he's going to get married and no one really wants to hear that a man in the public eye say he doesn't want to get married.

She should cut him loose and tell him to go and live with THAT woman.
Only thing is, the mistress won't want him now that he's damaged goods. LOL on him.

In my first marriage, I had lots of women hit on me. I would not partake since I was married, but I mistakenly interpreted it that they would be available IF I was single. So divorced my wife and all the available women evaporated.
I still regret dumping my first wife, even 28 years later.

Oh yeah? Think Lindsey Graham...

It may be a little like people who really aren’t going to work out purchasing a gym membership.

Maybe the Agentine infatuation is a more valuable gem.

I don’t have a great deal of sympathy for her, since she knew about this all along and enabled it.

“...male politicians become blinded...”
I heard it could do that.

No more than a cheap knock-off if she knowingly had a long-term affair with a married man. No excuse. None.
