But in interviews last spring, Mr. Sanford and his fiancée, Maria Belen Chapur, indicated that a relationship born in a stew of infidelity, 21st century politics and Twitter-enhanced cable-news sensationalism had, perhaps inevitably, sustained damage.

Sanford found out that being a single Congressman in D.C. is like a babe magnet so he ditched the Argentine Firecracker in the most public way possible-—a Facebook post.

This guy looks and acts amazingly like a weasel who has trouble controlling its tear ducts.

I can't understand why two attractive women are fighting over him.

He walked away from 4 sons. Heck of a ‘teacher.’ I gotta admit that I only once fell head over heels in love. Can Bill Clinton ‘acknowledge’ the same frailties? Not over Monica.

This guy is a real idiot. Who does something like that? Maybe his is on drugs as the ex-wife alleges.

What makes this toxic dingbat so special as to be elected to public office after his foibles? Most voters are just plain idiots-case in point.

Why do we keep electing the Stupid? This is all that gets paraded across the Press. We vote for drooling morons just because they aren’t LibTards. Sometimes I think we are the greatest danger to Conservatism.
