Sanford Admits Affair

[Keystone Phil]

Some gossip shows here (dubious sources though, nobody should take them that seriously ) say that he was with Karina Jelinek, an argie model.

Let's give the guy some credit. He has waaaaaay better taste in women than Bill Clinton.

Wow

[Landslide Lyndon]

Wow

I knew that like your mentor Silvio you'd appreciate the beauty of the female form.

[Edu]

If the Karina Jelinek thing is confirmed, i'll endorse him LOL

But i don't trust these gossip shows

[??????????]

He's Italian PX, what do you expect?

[Keystone Phil]

Wow

I knew that like your mentor Silvio you'd appreciate the beaty of the female form.

Well, she might be a little too big and her face isn't that great looking (in the first picture especially) but she's still "wow" worthy.

The second picture is the best. 

[Landslide Lyndon]

The second picture is the best. 

Apparently that's where all this Appalachian Trail hiking took place.

This is even going to be on our local 5 o'clock news.

On there they said that Sanford's wife asked him to leave her two weeks ago.

[Storebought]

The model looks more Venezuelan than Argentine.

But knowing how fabricated this whole tale has been, I wouldn't be at all surprised if Sanford didn't have an affair with a boy.

Sanford should be impeached and removed for dereliction of his office. Who escapes for a week without alerting staff?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Also they showed a clip of Andre Bauer criticising Sanford, guess who can't wait to become Governor?

From what i'm reading it seems unlikely that the affair was with the girl mentioned above. Some say it was a woman working for the argentine government lol

Pity

I endorse Sanford for president.

[Bleeding heart conservative, HTMLdon]

Trash.  Another good Republican governor down the tubes.  How many does that leave us with now?  My condolences to his family.

Oh we still have some great Republican Governors, but they are all pro-choice, pro-gay, and non-adulterers so they don't qualify for our nomination.

To those comparing this to Spitzer, how is it in any way comparable besides the fact that he was unfaithful to his wife?

Well, if what Lief posted is true, adultery is illegal in South Carolina. Otherwise, I agree that this isn't like Spitzer at all.

[JSojourner]

Disappointing. Sanford was removed from the Values Voter Summit.

Yes, but what a relief to see Kirk Cameron still involved.

[JSojourner]

this is quite sad. here i was hoping he was just a little on the off side, i hate too see someone end up having an affair.

You and JS are two of the few lefties on here to have some class about the situation.

Excuse me?

You're classy.  Just not a leftie.  ;-)

Give Elliot Spitzer some credit too:

[pogo stick]

I may be a social conservative But i'll stay on Sanford's and Ensign's side. Just like I defended Fossella.

How about Eliot Spitzer? John Edwards?

The question is what are your thoughts on Sanford not being in touch with anyone, and having no one know where he actually was?

The bigger issue than the affair itself is the fact he completely disappeared and no one knew where he was.  Which is something you just can't do as a sitting Gov.

Should he resign, then we will get Gov. Andre Bauer. I wonder how much this shakes up the race in 2010. No way that Indian women wins now, she would have relied on Sanford to get her through the primary with him gone or at least politically impotent, she has no chance.

I hope he stays in office.  No way do I want Andre Bauer as Governor.  Even Steven Colbert would be better.

What's wrong with this guy?
