Alec Baldwin's commentary about Mark Sanford's indiscretions was spot on. What Sanford did, to his family and to his staff, is reprehensible. What did he really do to the citizens of South Carolina? Not much, except prove to everyone that even right wing Republican nutjobs are human too. He deserves time to sort this out, whether he resigns or not. And the Democrats will gain absolutely nothing -- let me repeat, absolutely nothing -- by joining the inevitable Republican dogpile, and the efforts to oust Sanford from office. We should just stand back and say, "We understand the pain Gov. Sanford and his family are going through. Out of respect for him, his family and his staff, we urge all concerned to allow the Governor the time to deal with this unfortunate situation in private." Taking the high road here will do more for the party than joining the battle. Why give Republicans any opportunity to point to Clinton again, or to any other Democrat who had marital problems?
