COLUMBIA, S.C. - July 3, 2009 - /*Sanford*/ left the governor's mansion in Columbia on Friday
morning in the passenger seat of a state security sedan. A day
earlier, his spokesman said Sanford planned to fly to Florida
accompanied by state security for the long holiday weekend.
The two-term Republican says he does not intend to resign. He
and wife Jenny also hope to reconcile despite an interview during
which the governor told The Associated Press that his Argentine
mistress is his soul mate.
Jenny Sanford said in a statement Thursday that she may be able
to forgive her husband, but true reconciliation will take time and
won't be easy.
