Dixie, do you not care that he just ditched his security detail and disappeared for 5 days? His “personal life” is a reflection of his values - he basically screwed every resident of South Carolina, and all of us who believe in the family values candidates. He made us all look like fools. That is important.
As to whether or not he “ditched” his security or didn’t is not relevant to this story. I believe they knew and were respecting his privacy. He and his wife were/are separated. He didn’t screw me, or anyone for that matter. He is at the end of his run as governor.
His values as an administrator and as a leader do not have any bearing on what happens between him and his family. Whether or not I approve is beside the point. My main concern has and will always be how he conducts the business of the State.
If he had raped and beaten someone, participated in murder, used drugs like Willy boy, then yes, I would be concerned. But this is a private matter between a husband and wife.
