It just broke in the press. Unless she’s brain damaged she knows the marriage has been a political marketing artifact for years.

Standing with him at the press conference protects HIS job (and her perks). It does nothing to repair the hollowed out mockery of their marriage.

She’s not the sweet little lady you might think she is. She considers herself a WARRIOR!

What’s the date

I dont know, around the same time I think. So what? The other guy was a millionaire, and so is Spitzer. I'm sure she compared the two and found Spitzer the better investment. Wouldnt be the first time a woman did that

While I can't even begin to understand her motives for standing with the abomination she is unfortunately married to, I do hope she and her poor children are able to get beyond the shambles their lives has suddenly become.

I also suggest she make an appointment with her physician for a complete STD screening so she can find out if he's murdered her as well as slaughtering his marriage vows.

eliott spitzer, you are irredeemable filth of a clintonian degree.

Either that or he was covering up his knowledge with some bad acting. But I’m going with psycho or socio.

Democrats privately floated another option, telling The Associated Press that Spitzer was considering what was almost unthinkable immediately after Monday’s bombshell apology: hanging on. “If the public is fine, he’ll stay,” said a Democrat

PLEASE STAY! That will guarantee that the GOP will hold the State Senate.

The hell with her. If she was worth a damn in the first place she wouldn’t have hooked up with Weasel Boy. I’m not buying that “brave victim” crap from Mrs Weasel Boy any more than I would from Hillary Herself.

She’s one half of a rotten team.

Yes, she was married before she married Spitzer, but her marriage imploded.

My husband wouldn’t be brave enough to ask me to stand beside him at a press conference while he made a public confession. I would hope he would also be smart enough to avoid such a situation in the first place.
