(CNN) -- South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford admitted Wednesday, amid speculation over his whereabouts for the last several days, that he has been engaged in an extramarital affair with an Argentinian woman.

South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford chokes up on Wednesday as he admits to having an affair.

"I've been unfaithful to my wife," Sanford told a news conference in Columbia, the state capital. "I developed a relationship with what started as a dear, dear friend from Argentina."

His voice choking at times, Sanford apologized to his wife and four sons, his staff and supporters, and said he would resign immediately as head of the Republican Governors Association. The affair was discovered five months ago, Sanford said.

The South Carolina governor had not been seen in public since June 18. When questioned, Sanford's staff had told media outlets that he was hiking in the Appalachian Trail. But Sanford was spotted Wednesday in Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.

The South Carolina governor said he had been in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He said it was his fault for "shrouding this larger trip."

"I'm a bottom-line kind of guy. I'll lay it out, it's going to hurt, and we'll let the chips fall as they may," Sanford said as he spoke with reporters.

Sanford said his affair began as a friendship, but "over this last year, it developed into something much more than that."

"All I can say is that I apologize," he said, adding that he would appreciate a "zone of privacy" for the sake of his family.

When asked if he is trying to reconcile with his wife, Jenny, Sanford nodded, "I am, yeah."

Pressed further if he and his wife are separated, he said, "I don't know how you want to define that. I mean, I'm here and she's there. I guess in a formal sense we're not, but what we're trying to do is work through something that we've been working through for a number of months now."

Sanford, 49, is a conservative Republican mentioned as a possible presidential candidate in 2012. He is serving his second straight term as governor, which expires in January 2011. The state constitution prohibits a third straight term.

Shortly after Sanford's announcement, Democratic Governors Association Executive Director Nathan Daschle issued a statement saying, "Our thoughts and prayers are with Gov. Sanford and his family, and I wish them the best as they try to heal this wound."

The South Carolina governor has had a bruising year, losing his fight to turn down $700 million in federal stimulus money. Sanford initially tried to require that any stimulus money pay down the state debt, a stance rejected by the Obama administration.

The South Carolina's Supreme Court ruled earlier this month that Sanford had to accept the stimulus funds.

Earlier Wednesday, South Carolina Democratic Party Chair Carol Fowler said in a statement it was the "height of irresponsibility for the governor to walk out on his solemn duty to the people of South Carolina.

"When it comes to the real needs and concerns of South Carolinians, Mark Sanford has been pretty much missing in action for the last six-and-a-half years. But it is not acceptable for him to be actually missing.

"However, as disturbing as it is to walk out on your responsibilities without telling anyone, what's more troubling is that the governor and his staff have been less than truthful about his whereabouts," the statement said.

Sanford's wife Jenny told CNN Tuesday she had not talked to her husband since he left last Thursday and did not know where he went.

"I am being a mom today. I have not heard from my husband. I am taking care of my children," she said outside the couple's beach home on Sullivan's Island, South Carolina.

So now the story ends!

Well he left the state without telling anyone. Since he works for the PEOPLE I think he should tell them where he is.

Secondly if he used TAXPAYER money to fund his fuckfest he certianly DID commit a crime.

No, he just lied to a Grand Jury and to the country on live TV, but that's beside the points. Why bother argue with a loser like you who still think Obama is the messaiah...

Tom_PM · 06-24-2009, 01:18 PM

I cant believe that everyone swallows this story completely like this with no questions.

Who is this lady? Does she work in the government and in what capacity? Who's palms have been greased and where and to what extent? Has this asshole compromised our security?

This jerk is as crooked as they come and people should be calling for his resignation 100%.

You do realize that this is a GOP talking point and that is all right? There has been a cap and trade system for years and it generates income for the companies who reduce emissions.

Oh thank god ....whew, I thought there was a cap and trade bill H.R. 2454 being voted on this Friday. But if its already here, I guess there is no reason for new legislation. TY for clearing that up

Oh and btw..this is not a GOP / Left thing, its a stop big gov thing. Based on this article by the extremely right wing, GOP leaning site, ... the Daily Kos, seems like at LEAST a $175 per year tax per household.

I couldn't agree with you more. The reason this story is so juicy is that when the Republican party identifies itself as the party of "family values" and tries to make themselves and other "Christians" to be paragons of virtue it clearly makes them nothing more than unadulterated hypocrites.

I am talking about the Sulfur Dioxide Cap and Trade program already proving that such a program works.

So he resigns as head of some association, but doesn't resign as governor? That's pretty classic.

Robbie · 06-24-2009, 02:50 PM

Does anybody else notice that he actually lost a court battle because he didn't want a federal bailout for S.C.?

I've seen this a few times now in stories about governors and some companies as well.

They refused the federal bailout money and were then FORCED to take it against their will.

You guys realize that once the feds hand out OUR tax money they then own the ass of whomever they give it too (witness the President firing the head of General Motors a few months ago).

That's what troubles me about this story. A guy fucking around and hauling ass down to South America to get laid? That's not a big deal. Hell Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson did it all the time.

But to have the federal govt. FORCE you to take federal taxpayer money so they can control you and if you try to refuse it have the courts force you is just wrong. I don't know where it's all going. But the federal govt. is definitely moving to completely consolidate whatever tiny bits of power they didn't already have.

Yeah it really sucks for them. They're having a really bad year.

Like I said, I don't care who anyone else fucks. If it's consenting adults, then they can do what they want.

But if a 49 year old governor and a 51 year old senator who promote family values can't keep it in their pants, how can they honestly expect 15 year old boys with 10 times their sex drive to keep it in their pants?

The answer is they can't, and the least we can do is teach these teenagers about condoms.

Also, maybe they could quit with the demagoguery of sex and porn in general.

Yep, and republicans spent 20 million trying to hang him for it, but I'm sure you were still pissing in your crib when that happened so know one expects you to understand the hypocrisy.

Does this mean cheating on your wife is ok now? Cuz if so then it's time to get married.
