Not the Appalachian Trail....
Gov. Marc Sanford had better have a hell of a good story when he gets back tomorrow. His "I was hiking the Appalachian Trail" story appears to have just blown up.
Sanford was spotted getting on a plane at the Atlanta airport and the vehicle he was last seen driving was also found at the Atlanta airport.
So, now we come to the questions. 1) Just where did he go and what was he doing? Working for the poor, meeting with someone he wants hidden, or was it an underaged sex romp in Thailand or a Klan meeting? (Apparently he disappears somewhat regularly.)
2) Despite their statements of ignorance, did his wife/staff/etc know what he's been doing?
3) Did his Republican political opponents have some idea what he was up to, and that's why they brought this story to The State and out into the limelight?
Now, I really want to know what he was doing. Don't you?
(Warning, this still might be some giant stunt....)
Later: CNN claims to have found the vehicle at the Columbia Metropolitan airport. (A likely first first leg leading to an Atlanta hub.)
We really gotta know where he went.....

A parking permit for the school attended by Sanford’s children is visible on the windshield.

At some point a line is crossed and a stunt just becomes weird. I'm thinking that point has been reached.

Yeah. I have no idea what's going on.
In my first reading of this whole thing, I imagined him coming back from the wilderness with a new individualist Republican manifesto that he would use to launch his 2012 bid, but this story has gotten so convoluted, I don't think he could cash in now even if that was the plan.
I'm also really curious as to why his Republican opponents in the state were the ones who brought this forward, feeding the story to the paper. What do they know about what he's up to? What do they suspect?
It just smells like there's something outr there on the backside, you know?
