Check out Former South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford’s first TV ad in his bid for Congress:

I guess he had to do something like this coming out of the gates. I am just wondering if jumping from cutting spending and reducing debt to the “Hey, my bad about that whole affair thing” part will actually work or not.  It didn’t really do much for me, but then again I don’t think I’m who the ad was for anyway.

    Whereas most politicians in Sanford’s position – and there have been a lot of them in public service (as well as in the general public, according to a self-report study that puts the figure at one in four men) – make a single curt apology and never care to mention the subject again, the former governor of SC has taken the approach advocated by groups as diverse as AA and the U.S. Army, which is to admit your shortcomings and learn from them. A lot of people respect that approach.
