Another reason I believe women should run the world. A woman would never humiliate her family or her self over sex. We’re wired differently. Men can’t keep it in their pants, especially powerful men. I just believe that women inately have more strength and more character than most men. As for Silda, it really is her decision to make and I wouldn’t want to be in her shoes. It just seems such a shame for such an elegant woman to be humiliated this way, though I’d love to see Spitzer explaining to his three daughters why he felt the need to see a prostitute.

I don’t think Silda should stand by her husband. I believe she SHOULD diviorce him - IMMEDIATELY! He committed adultry - and that’s a DEFINITE SIN in Gods’ eyes! Remember Jim McGreeveys’ wife???? He went Gay!!!!!!!!!

Why can’t we just let her alone to make her own decisions, and I certainly don’t care what decision she makes, because it IS her life, and the media , and we (including myself are intruding.

My gosh what is she telling her daughters? She can forgive, but, gosh I hope she has that type of self-esteem and that force women need within themselves that says “OH NO YOU DO NOT! NOT TO ME! NOT TO ME.” I don’t care if his error was based upon some kind of addiction. How about the fear he could have contacted some STD and passed it onto her. This is one of those moral issues where, it wasn’t an act of impulsion, not addiction to drugs and your mind/body is acting based upon, a withdrawl symptom. This is no character, no morals, no values errors that mean this man needs to be alone, visitation with his daughters, his thing is—he likes to pay to have his way with women. The only way to show him he is disgustingly wrong and women won’t put up with this type of behavior from husbands/boyfriends is for the woman to leave. If she can’t or won’t, this might be telling us more about her than him. I do feel so sorry for her. What we go through. Put up with. Thank goodness I’m ‘let the door hit you hard on your way out.’ Well, I got dumped and didn’t open the door again. Mrs. Spitzer needn’t worry about money/alimony/support. To stay, —when she must be beyond crushed, and, the media is watching her during this devastating time in her and her daughters lives. And who will THEY marry? Shame on Mr. Spitzer’s example to be a good male role model and dad for his daughters. Shame on THAT.

Don’t be so quick to judge….because any of you guys don’t know what you would do if you were the x-Governers wife….she was shocked at first ,but where will she go…in fact they have the girls to think about…she can leave when the kids are grown… she’s not stupid.
