re: #219 Cato the Elder

I think in general it’s a mutual thing. The kind of woman who would want a politician for a husband has something wrong with her. And the kind of man who would want that kind of woman, ditto. So they mostly end up deserving each other.

Then there’s the whole thing of marrying someone because you think she’ll do well with your potential voters. That’s just a sick calculation when entering into a marriage. Very, very high eww factor.

Can’t speak to Sanford’s psyche, but if you’re looking for love, wouldn’t someone who doesn’t think Alan Greenspan is a great beach read be a little more appealing?

Well, he was looking for love, but who knows what the mysterious Maria was looking for. I personally think smart is sexy, but I don’t think I could get past Sanford’s resemblance to a hound dog.
