Gloria Borger's Take on Jenny Sanford
The accepted political guidelines for jilted wives (see: wives, jilted) have always decreed that the wounded ones be seen, but stay silent. They are the suffering partners willing to literally remain in the picture out of political necessity. Their very presence helps to suggest that this love is worth saving, because this man is so special -- to all of us.
Well, forget it.
In just one week, Jenny Sanford has shifted the paradigm of the political wife.
Good for her.
