Way to go Sanford

I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford admitted to an extramarital affair in an emotional Wednesday afternoon news conference, citing a relationship with a "dear, dear friend" in Argentina.

The governor also resigned as chairman of the Republican Governors Association.

"I've let down a lot of people, that's the bottom line," Mr. Sanford said.

Mr. Sanford's disappearance for several days was first widely reported Monday afternoon, and late Monday his office said the governor was hiking along the Appalachian Trail. The State newspaper reported Wednesday that the governor got off a plane in Atlanta early Wednesday morning from Buenos Aires. He said he had considered hiking on the Appalachian Trail but "wanted to do something exotic," the newspaper reported.

Well he sure as hell can kiss goodbye those already diminishing thoughts of the White House in 2012.

Fucking hypocrite.
