@PoBoyNation: Plus, it's one of those clauses in the Political Wife contract, isn't it? And if there's threatened breach, it's resolved by, like, binding clandestine arbitration?

@ManPurse: Somebody's telling her that if she doesn't go to the press conference, she'll ruin something that's bigger than herself. She's been putting that first for years, decades, by now. And she doesn't realize how much she hates him yet.

@ManPurse: for the divorce settlement of course... she stood by her man, was humiliated, thus should be adequately compensated!

then, a year or so later, she can write a bestseller stating that she knew all the time... book signings at b&n, border's etc. become a real celeb!

@PandoraSpocks: Yeah, me neither. So hopefully I will never intimately know why they do it.

@ManPurse: I have no idea why they do it, but I'm not married to a man in politics or a cheater.

@dadoorunrun: Yes, that was a nice touch. Totally inadvertent.

my coworker and I just got in an argument about this. She was hating on the wronged wife, saying what an idiot she is and that she wouldn't ever stand there and I said, they all do it. So maybe we don't know what it's like to be her.
Can someone explain the phenomenon of the wronged-politician's-wife, who always goes to the shaming press conference?
Anyone? Why do they go?

or "in short order?", "in shorts?"
I am obviously more shocked than his wife.

"I am not taking questions. I will report back to you shortly."

Is this some kind of dominatrix/slave speak?
Or is he just saying he has a small penis?

@Tammany_Fall: How 'bout: "When this press conference is over I'm closing the joint checking account, making a reservation for Montserrat and calling Enrique the pool boy."

I'm disappointed that I cheated on my taxes, that I stole that money from my friend's wallet, and I am disappointed that I might be indicted for these deeds, but since I have this ability to separate my own actions from the person who actually did them, me, with the contortion of "disappointed," I shall not resign, and furthermore I hope that someone else besides me will have to serve the time for these actions that disappoint me. I will even go so far to say that I lament the behavior with which I have been associated.

Ah, the far off gaze of the wronged wife/spouse, forced onstage to show support for the egomaniacal pol. What must she be thinking, in her heart of hearts?

Okay, first Jersey --- the only thing that ever started in Jersey, BTW --- then New York, the gubernatorial sex scandal resignation. I wonder if there's a template for these resignation statements.

I hope he's making that face because his wife has a shiv in his back.
