COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - A spokesman says South Carolina Gov. Mark
Sanford will head to Florida to spend the holiday weekend with his
family.
Sanford spokesman Joel Sawyer said the governor will leave
Friday morning. He did not say where the governor will stay or how
long he will be out of town. Sanford's in-laws live in Florida.
Sawyer says Sanford is concentrating on repairing the damage he
has done to his marriage and building back the trust of the people
of South Carolina.
In a statement, Sanford also reiterated that he will not resign
or leave the governor's office temporarily.
In an interview with The Associated Press this week, Sanford
said a woman he visited last month in Argentina is his soul mate,
but he is trying to fall back in love with his wife.

Mark Sanford on Bill Clinton

“I think it would be much better for the country and for him personally (to resign). I come from the business side. If you had a chairman or president in the business world facing these allegations, he’d be gone.” [Sanford on Clinton, The Post and Courier, 9/12/98]

Mark Sanford:philanderer AND hypocrite.

At first I was ready to cut this guy some slack and even thought there was a small amount of merit in the fact that he actually cared about the woman.  Most of the others, i.e. Clinton, Spitzer, etc., just used women like a slab of meat, because they could.  Had nothing to do with affection.  But, the more Sanford talks the more he is giving me the creeps.

He sounds like a very confused man being led around by the you know what and no one wants that kind of person in charge of a state.  Time for him to resign and go get some therapy or something.
