ETA: I'm thinking more about this. Even the Catholic Church, which I tend to think of as being really resolved on the issue of marriage and divorce, wouldn't require you to remain with a spouse who repeatedly committed adultery. Now, they wouldn't let you remarry if you separated, but you don't just have to keep putting up with crap.

The Catholic church also teaches a whole lot about forgiveness - maybe they view that as something important in their marriage. Lots of progressive women still believe marriage is a lifetime commitment, believe it or not. And who knows, maybe they had an open marriage agreement and we didn't know it?
I'm not a Hillary fan, but I just hate the idea of that everyone says she should have divorced him - especially when it comes from the "family values" republicans. Adultery is a very difficult situation in a marriage and I think it is hard to say how one would react without being in that situation.
