He was a RINO from the outset but that is probably what it takes to get the Governorship in Taxifornia anyway. I mean they just recycled Moonbeam Brown for crying out loud.
I too feel sorry for some of these wives but I also think they are likewise attracted to the power and prestige of politics and often play the game. Another question in my mind is the appeal that men in politics have to women. There is a book out there called "Why Men Are the Way They Are" written by this guy who was a big feminist. He points out, with some merit in my view, that men behave they way they behave because of how women react to power, fame, fortune, etc. The message to men is if you want to mate with some nubile hottie and you aren't exceptionally good looking you can still get there with money, etc.
Dustin Hoffman had a great quote. He said before he was a famous actor women wouldn't come within 10 feet of him. Now he has to beat them away with a 10 foot pole. He is the same relatively unattractive guy but he now has money, fame, etc. and the women flock to him. Men, being the pigs that they are, see that and respond accordingly. There is lots of blame to go around with the infidelity business and if the women didn't throw themselves at the men and the men were not so weak there would be less of it happening.
Since I am on the subject I also have a theory about trophy wives to try out on you, My theory is that many guys who have started from the bottom so to speak and have worked their way up the ladder had original spouses who knew them when and were probably not fooled by their press releases. Then when they achieve success the gold diggers start to glom onto them and tell them how wonderful and brilliant and perfect they are while their first wives know better. Next stop....trophy wife.
Have I hijacked my own thread?!?!?!?
