South Carolina Governor Lost and Then Found

Governor Sanford of South Carolina adds to the woes of the GOP today with his reappearance from a six day disappearance. Upon his return he admitted to being in an affair with an Argentinian woman.

Sad for lots of people. As I have seen over the past couple of years with politicians admitting to infidelity or some other form of dishonesty, I realize that people who back these politicians (wives, supporters, or fellow politicians) are really betrayed. John Edwards's betrayal was probably the worst. He was running for president and had lots of backers from all over the country.

I wonder what the motivation for these things are? Is it really just sex?
