The Love Gov

What are they serving these days at governor’s conferences and Senate caucuses? Viagra?
Eliot Spitzer, John Edwards, David Vitter, John Ensign and now Mark Sanford.
One story has it that Sanford ’s staff merely misunderstood him. They thought he said he would be “on the Appalachian Trial,” but he actually said “on some Argentine tail.”
A wag from North Carolina emailed CNN last night: “Why are South Carolinians so upset that their governor was missing for seven days? Our last governor was missing for eight years.”
Of course, it may be that Sanford was just trying to live up to the romantic example set by that South Carolina Republican hero Strom Thurmond.
And Sanford ’s emails certainly make more interesting reading than the ones we get from N.C. State . Of course, we don’t know what’s missing here.
All this just goes to prove the wisdom of what Robert E. Lee is reputed to have said about South Carolina : It’s too small to be an independent country and too big to be an insane asylum.
