I think this becomes important if she decides to run for President.
Clinton was already in office when his affair with Monica came to light.
Would Palin divorce Todd? I doubt it.
Would women feel a kinship to her over the cheating?
Would more women vote for her?
Would she been seen as more saintly for forgiving Todd?
Or would women feel she is a fool for staying with a man such as Todd?
What kind of first man would Todd be?
Can he be trusted with secrets concerning world affairs or just regular affairs?
If this is true and I am not saying it is at this point it would change a lot of things for her and her future.
So yes I do feel this is an important issue and not just NE gossip.
