If a wife chose to divorce her husband in such circumstances were attacked for that decision, it would be seen as bloody impertinant and intolerant. I think that applies the other way round too. After all, when we get married, we promise to stick with someone "till death us do part", and there's no "unless" clause.

There have to be reasons for her being hated other than that. What was her slippery manoeuvre for getting to be a New York senator - wasn't it just to do with having to establish a residential qualification? Isn't that a normal thing to do in the USA? In a country where an Austrian can become a State Governor, and a Easterner born with a silver spoon in his mouth can become a yee-haw Texan son of the people?
