Only one recently-wronged political wife—Elizabeth Edwards—has written a book discussing her ordeal. But in its segment today on "forgiveness," Good Morning America ignored John Edwards and his wandering ways. When it came to polyamorous politicans, ABC focused exclusively—surprise!—on two Republicans: Mark Sanford and David Vitter.

The release of the Libyan Lockerbie murderer, the Manson murders anniversary and the re-entry into the NFL of Michael Vick were the jumping-off points for the segment. But when politics popped up, the only examples bore the GOP label . . .

Did not see the show. As a cajun I think that Vitter is toast.

As another cajun, I think Vitter will win, but had better be prepared to fight like hell. He is making all the right moves now and his anti-Obamaism should carry the day. Rat New Orleans ain't as strong as it once was,

IMHO GMA is one of the most liberally biased shows on TV. It’s got about the same credibility as the David Letterman show.
