After 40 years, the Gores just grew apart and decided splitting was better than growing back together? Consign ThetaPrincess on priorities. And I know they said there's been no affair, but I wonder . . . .

It was kind of a rhetorical question. I've always suspected that the Clintons' marriage was based more on ambition--both of them were very determined about what they wanted, and they fit in with each other's life goals and were determined do whatever it took to get the other--and themselves--where they wanted to be. Not that this is a recipe for a bad marriage.
Of those four marriages, it would come to pass that the Clintons were the least dysfunctional. It's well-known in some circles that the McCain marriage is problematic; add to that that the Giuliani and Edwards marriages are kaput now...
