Sanford And Done

SC Gov. Mark Sanford.  Keeps his job...loses his wife.
South Carolina's first lady, Jenny Sanford, announced today that she will file for divorce from Gov. Mark Sanford.
"This came after many unsuccessful efforts at reconciliation," Jenny Sanford said in a statement.

She also pleaded for some measure of privacy.

"The dissolution of any marriage is a sad and painful process. It is also a very personal and private one. Because Mark and I are public figures, we have naturally had less privacy with which to deal with our difficulties than do other couples. Indeed, I know it will soon become known so I choose to release this brief notice that I am now filing for divorce," she said. "I am still dedicated to keeping the process that lies ahead peaceful for our family."

Jenny Sanford and her sons had moved out of the governor's mansion, even as the couple said they were working on their marriage.
Not a pretty end to an ugly story, and it being politics, it won't be the last time it happens either.
