Making Tammy Wynette Proud

Once again, a public official steps down after getting caught in some extra-marital activities. Once again, the wife is forced to stand by her man and listen to his apology as the cameras flash away and late night comics have a field day. I always wonder, what are they really thinking?

What happens when they have their first moments alone after the scandal has broke and the husband steps down from office? Is it a teary eyed confessional? Lots of yelling and screaming? A time of healing? Or, perhaps, threats by the wife to take some hedge clippers and inflict permanent damage?
