Politics, U.S.: A handy guide to GOP presidential wannabes-turned-also-rans

First, the GOP looked to Sarah Palin, the Alaska governor whose presidential hopes seem to have been killed by Levi Johnston. source

The GOP then put all their eggs in Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal’s basket, only to find that he doesn’t give speeches very well. source

Nevada Sen. John Ensign, also a presidential hopeful, is now seen as a massive hypocrite after he admitted to having an affair. source

Now, their latest hope, South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, is bummin’ thanks to an Argentinean ladyfriend. Ouch. source

Politics, U.S.: Mark Sanford’s wife, Jenny: “Not only will I survive, I’ll thrive.”

Am I O.K.? You know what? I have great faith and I have great friends and great family. We have a good Lord in this world, and I know I’m going to be fine. Not only will I survive, I’ll thrive.
Jenny Sanford • On her husband, South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford’s, admission that he had been cheating on her with a woman in Argentina. She’s a strong individual just like Sanford. She is scorned woman. Hear her roar. • source

U.S.: Where in the world was Carmen Sandi … Mark Sanford? Argentina

Dude wasn’t in the Appalachians on Naked Hiking Day. This story had already taken a turn for the bizarre when we covered it yesterday, but now it’s switched from bizarre to awesome. South Carolina governor Mark Sanford, earlier reported to be chilling in the same spot as a buncha naked hikers, was instead chillin’ in Buenos Aires, Argentina – which just so happened to be the first place we looked for him. In other news, his Lt. Governor, Andre Bauer (sadly, not Andre Braugher) is fuming mad and wants to talk to Mr. Exotic RIGHT NOW AAARGH RAGE! source

U.S.: S.C. Governor Mark Sanford’s whereabouts take a weird turn

After the end of the most recent session (which was especially brutal), the South Carolina governor disappeared and didn’t tell anyone where he was going. According to his wife, he does this all the time, but people in the media noticed this time. source

Turns out he went to take a hike. Mark Sanford went to the Appalachian Mountains and went hiking alone. Interestingly, as the Christian Science Monitor reports, he went right around Naked Hiking Day. We’re not saying. We’re just saying. source
