Aaah. So affairs really make for better presidents. :D

in dont know if shes better but she definitely has much more patience than i do

Maybe there's some truth to that... Reagan, Kennedy, Clinton.

Reagan? Why are you lumping him in the infidelity club?

Reagan was divorced in 1948, when it was pretty scandalous to get divorced. In some churches, being divorced and remarrying is adultery to the first wife if she is not dead. I don't put him in with the infidelity club, but then, I don't put him in the group of good presidents either (and I actually voted for him once).

Back to the original topic though... sounds now like Elizabeth Edwards found out about the affair just before she found out about her cancer recurrence and chose to stay with him because of the cancer. It's not the decision I would have made, personally, but <shrug> it's her life to live how she chooses.

It would be tough to handle two such stressful things at once. That said, it would be perfectly understandable if she now kicked his happy butt to the curb now. How is her health?
