You know it's bad when a Governor distances himself from his own wife.

Gov. Bob McDonnell's spokesman says Maureen McDonnell did not tell the governor about her purchases. Hopefully this will sink the Cooch and destroy any Senatorial aspirations that McDonnell has. The Virginia Governor song and dance is that they can only serve one term but that one term is almost always followed by a guaranteed U.S. Senate seat.

Is trying to figure out a stylish new undercoating for the bottom of that bus. Five grand in political donations should cover it.

just feed her to the dogs. Just say "it is my fault, and I will make it right". And it is probably true- corruption is infectious.
