I don't know if you have been following the Governator's woes, but I had to comment. It seems he fathered a child with a member of the household staff

and has maged to keep it secret for 15 years. You just know that Edwards, Clinton, Hart, Vitter and Gingich are all on the phone asking how he managed it. Edwards in particular.

I just want to say how much I admire Shriver in this case. Apparently she dumped his ass the day she found out. None of this "stand by your man" tearful press conference crap, just kick his sorry butt to the curb. Good for her.

In related news, it seems Newt has racked up a $500,000 tab at Tiffineys. Now I don't know about you, but if I were a womanizer like Newt and the wife racked up that kind of bill in small, easily sold assets on the family visa card, I'd be worried. Anyone else think she might have caught him "auditioning" Mrs. Gingrich number 4?
