Well, here's an original line: "You are glorious and I hope you really understand that." So begins the batch romantic of emails between South Carolina Gov.Mark Sanford and his Argentine mistress, Maria, which The State published Thursday.
Forced to fess up after an unexplained disappearance, Sanford's abject, prostrate confession this afternoon was wrenching to watch. "This is not the end of the story," The Fix says. "
He appears to have willfully misled his staff and the people of the state about his whereabouts... There will almost certainly be some sort of investigation into whether Sanford misused state funds on this trip."
Sanford had been a potential Republican presidential candidate in 2012 (via The Swamp) but that's probably off now.
In fact, as Media Matters shows, Fox News has already decided to start calling the disgraced Luv Guv a Democrat.
Brad Blog notes: "All of that follows the recent admission by the GOP's other (once) 2012 Presidential hopeful, Sen.
John Ensign of Nevada, that he, too, was having an affair."
