When Jenny Sanford dumped her overly weepy, cheating, lying husband Mark Sanford, governor of South Carolina, many people cheered. Some have urged Silda Spitzer and Elin Nordegren, other wives of big shots who were caught coloring outside the lines, to walk away. But when People confirmed on Wednesday that Elizabeth and John Edwards had separated and that it was at Elizabeth's behest, there was much less of that "You go girl!" whooping from the grandstand. John's political foes may be happy with his misfortunes, but for Elizabeth's fans - and she used to have many - the news...

Unlike Jenny Sanford, whose actions projected the image of a smart, liberated woman about to embark on a fantastic new life, Elizabeth Edwards is fighting Stage 4 cancer.

...with some fairly straightforward footage of Woods' driveway, presumably shot from a news helicopter. But then things jump into three badly animated dimensions: a 3-D cop is shocked - shocked! - to hear of Tiger's accident and rushes to the scene only to find a inconsolable Barbie-like Elin Nordegren, crouched over her husband's unconscious body. But wait! After a shaky dissolve, the story changes. In the retelling, Nordegren has found out about Woods' alleged infidelities; animated, massively conjectural craziness ensues.
