Do you think he'll keep seeing hookers on the side?

Probably, ...but it's none of my business if he does.

Are people judging Silda?  I haven't seen that.

Yes, they are!  Over the last few days I've seen lots news reports and talking heads on TV questioning why she would 'stand by her man' at a time like this?  Similar judgments have appeared in opinion pieces in lots of newspapers.  Worst of all, women have joined in this activity swearing up and down that no woman should be standing up there humiliated with her husband.  We should all hold our tongues on this issue because life has a way of throwing curve balls.  Remember the DC madame and her long phone list of johns?

Wendy Vitter, wife of Sen. David Vitter, learned that it is easy to make catty remarks from the sidelines - until your husband gets caught in a sex scandal. When asked in 2000 how she'd react if her husband cheated on her, she invoked Lorena Bobbitt, who famously cut off the penis of her philandering husband who she said also was abusive.

"I'm a lot more like Lorena Bobbitt than Hillary (Clinton). If he (Vitter) does something like that, I'm walking away with one thing, and it's not alimony, trust me," Wendy Vitter said then. But when her husband stood before the cameras to talk about his name appearing in the records of an escort service, she stood by him
looking humiliated.

Even Silda has found herself eating her own words.

A decade ago, as she watched then-First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton humiliated by her intern-loving hubby, Silda Wall Spitzer made clear her intentions if Eliot ever cheated.
"That would never be me. I'd be gone," Silda told friends, a pal told The Post.

But Silda, for the second time in a week, donned a tailored designer skirt suit and appeared to be standing by her hooker-loving hubby yesterday, even as the fairy tale has soured behind closed doors.

The only "scab on the state" as you put it, are the self-righteous who can't keep their noses out of other people's bedrooms. This should be between him and his wife.

Yes, they are!  
That's interesting :(

I think she may be in shock and that is why she is standing by him at this time.  I still think she will leave him at some point.



This should be between him and his wife.
And some hookers!

 ::) at Bay comparing himself to Spitzer.

Spitzer's dad is worth close to a billion dollars.

And Spitzer can be quite personable.
Exacty...Spitzer's dad is worth close to a billion dollars...which is the exact reason why his idiot wife is "standing by her man". No normal woman/person in their right mind would stay with any man who had sexual affairs with multiple hookers/escorts. In the end, greed gets 'em all. In the end, its all about $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I disagree.  The motivation you describe may be true for you and the company you keep, but it is certainly not true for everyone or every woman, particularly a woman who already has (or has access to money).  Remember, Silda is a well educated professional; she made very good money as a (corporate?) attorney before she started raising her family—in fact she made much more money than her husband.

Lots of (not famous) people stay together after affairs, multiple affairs, or episodes with hookers—particularly when a long marriage or children are involved.  You just don’t know about it because they are not celebrities. 

Maybe you cannot understand it because you are a person of modest means or you’ve never been married for a long time or been invested in a relationship that you want to save, but take a lesson from Wendy Vitter (above); it is easy to make catty comments from the sidelines, but people who do so most often don't know what they are talking about.

I’m not judging the decision to stay as right or wrong, but I think it’s a mistake to assume that everyone is motivated by the same things you are.  Btw, if Silda wanted to leave it’s clear she could do so with a sizeable settlement--and she may yet do so throwing your theory out the window.

Somehow, I doubt that this marriage is going to end over this.  Your thoughts?

I agree with you BayGBM...these people in the celebrity or political spotlight seem to deal with it differently. I would be a wreck...i was a wreck (well for a couple of weeks, at least) when the first hubby cheated on me and i even knew we were not the ones for eachother...it was HUMILIATING and i can't imagine standing there on TV still all goo goo eyed at the hubby (Clinton was a prime example, too). Maybe when these people get together it's different and their love is more on the surface if that makes sense.

Ok, but we have not seen pix of the whore(s) David Vitter romped with.  The above is a pic of Spitzer's whore. And in fairness to Vitter's catty wife, she was not exactly at her best when her pic was taken.  Can any 50 something wife compete with a 20 something whore for sex appeal?  It's not a fair comparison.  :-[

Anyhow, give me a choice between a muscledaddy (Leo) and a muscle son (Ryan) and I'd  take the daddy.  ;D

Well I happen to be of the opinion that one man's private actions regardless of his profession are not a reflection of the state.

Exactly!

What I find so surprising is everyone's assumption that she had no idea whatsoever. The Spitzers live in a different world than most people here. It's also not inconceivable that in her eyes, his crime was not the hookers, but in the getting caught. In fact, in her circles, knowing he kept prostitutes may even be preferable to his having a mistress. I'm not sure how she feels about his reported aversion to condom use, ...but that's something they're going to have to deal with.

Well, truth be told, hope he had his fun because if she does leave him....she's taking a whole lotta cash and leaving a funny looking, pathetic, obviously stupid, cheater of a man.  ;D

Exactly! Now if you ask the man who he'd rather have by his side, as his life partner, watching his back, supporting him in his goals, achieving & accomplishing life goals together, ...and I'd bet dollars to doughnuts he'd chose his 50 something talented, educated, experienced, 50 something wife over a 20 something escort any day of the week. Sex is sex, but creating a life is something else entirely.

In politics, money talks and bullshit walks. I still stand by my opinion earlier because if you think for one second that Silda is not staying with him for $$$ then you're living in a fantasy land.
