I'm not going to judge Hillary for staying with Bill, she had her reasons and they work for her (and him(, she appears to be happy enough with him.
I'll judge her for other things, but not for that.

I feel free to evaluate politicians on any indication that seems to point to fundamental character. I really don't spend a lot of time trying to pass judgment on people really in my life, so I understand on that level what you guys are saying.
This is the most random highjack I have ever personally participated in, I think:
I thought that annulments were really just based on the circumstances at the time of the sacrament. Are you sure that something that happens after the sacrament can actually be grounds?
(If there was cheating even as they prepared to get married, then sure. But if the marriage was valid when it occurred, can it be annulled for something that happens later? )
Even if you can't get an annulment so you could remarry later, you still don't have to stay. I don't think any church or power that marries people in the US requires that you stick it out with someone who refuses to be faithful.
