Why do political wives stay with thier husbands after they cheat?

Question

U know, people like Hillary Clinton and Elizabeth edwards

why do they stay with their husbands after he is clearly a weak cheater

Who is benefiting from the wives staying? I have always wondered

Answer 1

power/money/etc

Answer 2

They aren't the only ones. Some people can work things out and have a stronger relationship.

Answer 3

they are political groupies, s*x drugs and rock & roll baby~!

Answer 4

I hope you realize after a spouse cheats many times the other stays with them because they feel they can get past that hard time and with politicians it's no different they feel they can move past it if you look at society many spouses have cheated and the marriage remains in tact you can take a marriage of 12 years and 2 kids both under 18 and give up you have to try to fix things  

Answer 5

Money and Power.

Power and Money.

Answer 6

I would not be surprised if they entered into marriage with a contract binding, that stipulated that they may not divorce before a certain period had elapsed.

This could involve a payment structure if they cooperated, and a penalty if they did not.

This would be in place to keep public face in times of adversity.

Think about it-the minister is going through turbulent times, the last thing he/she wants is to have their spouse ditch them-unrecoverable!

Just idle speculation, but...  

Answer 7

Their relationship is a business relationship not one of love!  Hilary would only be upset that Bill was impeached more so than messing around with other women!

Answer 8

Yea..it's the money and power game.

Answer 9

Money, love and access to power.

Answer 10

Money & because these women are stupid & weak!

I would love to see a political wife slap the sh*t out of her husband!

& I would immediately vote her into his office seat!

*EDIT***

I love how they say "they stay for the children" but what relly are they teaching their children? & why didn't daddy 'think of the children' & keep his p****r in his pants? These guys have to know that they will get caught!

Answer 11

Because they aren't really in love with them either! A man/woman does not cheat if they are in a good relationship.  They are benefiting too from staying...

Answer 12

Also is it cheating if the wife approves? There are such marriage arrangements after all. Do you think swingers are a myth?
