I'm sorry but my husband sends money to campaigns without telling me at times. He has also given money to friends without discussing it with me first.

These are not large amounts of money and I don't care if he does it or not.

If he had done this back when we were a young, struggling married couple, I would definitely have a problem with him giving money when we could ill afford it. I think that's the key here. The wealthy think and live differently than we. what appears to be a huge financial decision to us is but a drop in the bucket to them. Nothing more than tossing change in the Salvation Army kettle. JMO....

Exactly. There are some though that are being deliberately obtuse. Either that or they are tremendous control freaks in their real lives and I pity their spouses.

I'm thinking if he had given money to one woman (not a campaign, not a friend you know) for some thirteen years without you knowing it, that might be different.

I think it was a huge mistake.

I also think he can overcome this, but it will be very difficult. It will take a very persistent and almost perfectly run campaign from here on in (if he actually stays in).
