So far, without anyone driving cross country in a crazed state with a diaper on, so they didn't have to stop to pee or poop on the way!

Her husband planned a birthday party for her tonight here in DC. I know someone who was invited. Husband sent email Friday night canceling it.

Ummm, yeah.

I heard on twitter (I know I know) that infidelity rumors had plagued him for years. Maybe PP who wrote once a dog always a dog was right.

Also, maybe he messed with the wrong bitch (not sure if pun intended)- Broadwell seems Cra--zazy.

The WaPo story said explicitly that the third woman was NOT his wife.

YES! Totally thought the same thing.

The story reminds me of the NASA astronaut love triangle.

Oh and to add insult to injury, Broadwell turned 40 yesterday, Nov 9th, the day this story broke. What a LOVELY birthday present!

I thought we weren't supposed to care who anyone slept with.....

Everything I have read thus far had indicated that broadwell cut it off when he became CIA director in sept. 2011. I wonder what has happened in the last year, sounds like the FBI had been involved for 6 months so it makes for some juicy theorizing until more details come out. Can't wait to hear who the third woman is, and when some of the emails will be leaked....

I believe that a person in his position wants to be "caught". They are in a situation that they don't want to end, but at the same time they know it is destructive and they don't know how to end it. It really doesn't run that deep. He is a middle aged man who is loosing his mo Jo and needs to prove something. At the end of the day, this same person has no balls ! If you want to read into it, do a study on middle aged men.

The third party in this latest story can't be Petraeus' wife. The article I read indicated that the other person was not a USG employee. As the PP says, Holly Petraeus works for the consumer protection agency. So it's someone else....wonder how long it will take for that name to leak?

You know Holly is tight with Elizabeth Warren and works for the CFPB, right? So many colorful characters involved here!

Then, he would have made sure not to be so stupid as to leave any trails behind. As a rank official dealing with security issues he should know better.If he was stupid enough to have this happened I wonder if he would have even advise his wife to seek the help of the FBI, he didn't suspect of the biographer, they could have traced the mails thinking it was a totally different person.

No, it doesn't make sense. She would tell her husband if she was getting harassing emails. He would have shut down any attempt to go the FBI. It's gotta be another mistress. Once a dog, always a dog.
