    Sanford's Wife: I <i>Still</i> Haven't Heard From Him


    AWOL South Carolina governor Mark Sanford may have briefly checked in with his office this morning to assure them he's fine and he'll be back at work tomorrow. But he hasn't told his wife, according to her.

    A CNN reporter tracked down Jenny Stanford at her Sullivan Island vacation home. Sounding less like the wife of a 2012 presidential contender and more like America's favorite reality TV star announcing her separation from her husband, she said: "I am being a mom today. I have not heard from my husband. I am taking care of my children."

    How sweet would it be of Obama just went away for 5 days?

    Maybe it would help his stalled out domestic policy agenda in Congress?

    One less "contender" for the 2012 GOP nomination.

    This really opens the door for John Ensign in 2012.

    Maybe he's a Robert Bly fan. Would work with his politics, kind of.

    Deep Thought

    Could 'hiking the Appalachian Trail' become a new metaphor in politics?

    Is it really that hard to be the Governor of South Carolina? Has it even changed at all since the 1700's? All I can visualize is a cotton field and Hilton Head.

    Where, where the Hell is Mark?
    ...
    Well, maybe he went to get a Rick Perry haircut
    Maybe he went to get a striped shirt
    Maybe he went to get some plastic shoes
    Maybe he went to get incognito sunglasses
    Well, maybe he went to get a stud flight jacket
    Maybe he went to get a Vespa scooter
    Maybe he went to get a British flag
    Maybe he went to go Mod Ska dancing
    Well, maybe he went to get a mohawk
    And maybe he went to get some gnarly thrash boots
    Maybe he went to go ride his skateboard
    Maybe he went to see the Circle Jerks
