'A Terrible, Terrible Trauma'

摘要

After the news of Dick Morris's adultery broke and he resigned as White House political adviser, his wife drove her philandering husband home to Connecticut. She gave a press conference with him, then posed with him on the cover of Time magazine. Through it all, she showed very little of her true emotions. Some people pitied her. Others speculated that she was standing by her man now to score some big payoff down the road (he had landed a $2.5 million book deal as a result of his insider's role with the Clintons). Still others, especially women, were aghast that the highly regarded trial lawyer, with no children to keep her in the marriage, had appeared so placid in the face of a humiliat-ingbetrayal.
