"I think we're getting the version his wife got." Possibly. He certainly is trying to spin it for all it is worth. Now, personally, I don't really care if he had an affair or not. And if he didn't have his eye on the White House, I wouldn't care at all, except maybe to chuckle quietly. But, for someone who was eying the presidency, he has shown exceedingly poor judgment. Not the least of which is his assumption that he could fly down to Argentina for the better part of a week and no one would notice. If he had phoned her to tell her it was over, things would have played out differently. Or even sent her a ticket and met with her, say, on the Appalachian Trail. But he did things in such a way that pretty much guaranteed he would be caught. Sort of like when Gary Hart dared the press to discover he was having an affair. Often times, brinkmanship is a stupid strategy.
