truth to all these allegations (where there is smoke...).

Their husband's advancement -- and thus their own -- depends on them keeping silent.

Having watched her facial expressions throughout the interview and the proceedings, I didn't see acceptance on her face. I saw fear and apprehension. As in, now that I know this is all out for everyone to see, what is my next step ? Remember there are two little girls in this equation. I think she is weighing what her best options are. You know, sometimes you have to take the time to collect yourself and measure what the best course of action is for the long run. She's not sitting next to him with the beaming admiration we used to see in Nancy Reagan's "gaze." Her face is not happy.

gives me the impression that the rose-colored glasses she has been wearing have either fallen off or severely cracked. And yes, I do think KavaNut might have been right about his family being destroyed, just not in the way most people might think. I don't think their relationship will ever be quite the same. But frankly, however much KavaNut might love his family, they come a distant second to his naked ambitions, and his wife knows it even if she didn't before now.
