Another “Other” Woman For Sanford?
Is there another “other” woman?
To hear S.C. Gov. Mark Sanford tell it, the affair with the beautiful Argentinian woman that has him fighting for his political life is the only time he has ever been unfaithful to his wife.
At a tearful press conference earlier this week, Sanford stated definitively that his affair with Maria Belen Chapur was the only time he has strayed from his wife, but multiple sources in and around the state capital of Columbia, S.C. are telling FITS that this is not the case.
In fact, an attorney who is said to represent another woman allegedly involved in a romantic relationship with the governor was reportedly present at Sanford’s dramatic press conference Wednesday.
FITS is working to confirm this information, which if true would obviously represent another major bombshell in this rapidly unfolding story.

I heard it is the wife of a doctor in Columbia. Purely gossip though.

Heard the same thing from two totally seperate sources. But that’s how this town rolls. Bunch of gossip…

Wife of a doctor in Columbia gossip is floating around down here in Charleston also.

Why would a woman hire a lawyer to proudly deny she had been involved in a romantic relationship with the luv guv #2? Why would Cindi Scoppe even put it in her article yesterday? Too much smoke here.

She’s from Cola., but I believed that she lived down in Charleston up until a few months ago. Think her kids may go to Heathwood Hall with Sanford kids…

Governor Sanford had a medical problem and his affairs were all attempts to restore some sort of prostate health. It was this or CANCER.

i too have heard the name of the doctor’s ex and another name that worked closely with the governors office….and Phillip Branton continues to remind us why no one takes him seriously

OK: I agree – just like high school. Problem is we have a lot of adults here acting like they are in high school.

1. The Argentinian is a decoy. And “conniving-ly” not in love.
2. Andre Bauer’s encouraging Governor Sanford not to resign is PURE SELFISHNESS. Politics above what is best for the first family. Shame on you, Andre.
3. STAY OUT OF IT ANDRE.

I know that David Beasley had a torrid affair with his doctor’s wife, a former USC women’s basketball player, while he was in office.
My first thought was that this was getting mixed up with that.
But I guess lightning may strike twice in the same place sometime. Especially in the politcal party that alone speaks for Jesus. I see now why y’all nominate so many gay men. Beats this!

Someone should have a drug analysis ordered. Anyone who leaves their job and family with no notification; even if they are hiding out for an affair; has the good since to notify someone. Only a drug addict would be so irresponsible as to leave the states without notifying someone.

Everyone must remember…that tere is always an element of truth to rumors, and that’s how they get started; Rumors are cousins to gossip, but they are a bit more c redible, much to our chagrin.!

That 3,500 word article in Sunday’s STAR mentioned two additional women.
Two.
For a total of three.
That they know of.
Though they didn’t publish the other two names (which they have) because they aren’t certain yet.
Some men never fall. Some men fall only once. And some men spend a lot more time on the floor than they do standing upright.
