And for the record...

The problem I have with Governor Mark Sanford's behavior isn't so much the affair as it is the fact that he abandoned his gubernatorial responsibilities for a week. He's the chief executive of his state--experience he'd no doubt be touting if he ran for president--but he left the country without formally transferring executive authority to anyone, and he didn't tell people where he was going (and was consequently unreachable).

Is that the kind of person you'd want running the U.S. government?
