Shell shock?

Finally, someone asks the real question I've had about the McGreevey 'Affair': What on earth was Mrs. McGreevey doing / thinking, standing behind her husband at the press conference to show her support as he announced that he was gay????

It would have been bad enough if her husband, New Jersey Gov. James E. McGreevey, had announced that he had an affair with another woman. The TV audience still would be scratching its collective head wondering why the missus was standing by her man. But when the announcement is that he is "gay" — not even bisexual — and the wife finds herself outed as the wife on the outs, it becomes an even bigger mystery as to why she is dutifully standing by her spouse.

Who will probably not be her spouse for long.
