Affairs are common enough. But his behavior before and after this revelation was embarrassing to the state and to the SCGOP. Every day he's losing more and more Republican support. That said, he may just survive this. It would be nothing short of a miracle, and the result of some Republicans choosing to put their own political futures above the principle involved here.

Trust me, being from Illinois I know what it's like having a liar for governor. It's up to the people of SC to decide what comes next for Sanford. If we hadn't learned that he used tax payer money to pay for his love romps then I would definitely say he shouldn't resign. Since cheating on your wife isn't illegal. But he actually betrayed more than trust when he forced everyone in SC to pay for his affair. If people say he should resign because of his misuse of tax money, then I can agree with that. But not just for the affair. Either way it doesn't matter to me, it's just sad the whole thing had to happen. I’m going to refrain from calling for his resignation.
