Awww, there goes my hopes for being First Lady of San Francisco.
Gavin Newsom divorced his wife a couple of years ago. He shtooped the wife of his campaign manager. Newsom remains single, so anything's possible.

I really wish he hadn't followed up a pretty straight admission of guilty (with almost no use of passive voice) with the now obligatory "I need help with substance abuse."

Frankly, I don't really care about affairs. Those are, for the most part, a different kind of misconduct than official misconduct. Yes, it calls into question his general judgment but overall I don't think it that big of a deal.

However, while "I behaved stupidly because I'm overly fond of the booty call" doesn't call into question his judgment on affordable housing issues, "I behaved stupidly because I'm a drunk" does.

And, since in San Francisco, Newsom is generally attacked as not being progressive enough, it'll be interesting to see all of the people who didn't care about Clinton and Monica suddenly consider this a major issue and the people who cared about nothing more than Clinton and Monica call it a private matter.

Oh yeah, that's right. He did leave her, didn't he. But it still remains that he's a straight. Oh well.

My recollection was that they left each other due to the conflicting pull of their increasing celebrity. Still, to read the tea leaves, she was somewhat mannish and gaudy. And he will be running for reelection with his support for gay marriage a major plank in his platform. After recent events, his base might need extra shoring up.
