I really try to not get into personal comments about posters on FR as I respect the forum, believe people should be able to say just about anything they want and I learn a lot from these comments BUT...
You ought to be ashamed with your implication that because the wife is not “hot”, it explains his infidelity...disgusting comment.
Since his wife was the daughter of the Superintendent of West Point, this raises the question of how much was this a love match, and how much a move of military strategy, possibly on both their parts. I don’t think not hot explains it so much as time separated, perhaps not a love match in the first place, and aggressive women targeting a man with power, and perhaps failing confidence at age 60 and not what I as a woman would call handsome. Also, what other agendas did Broadwell and Kelley have?
