As she campaigns for president, one of the questions that a lot of voters are asking about Hillary Clinton is why she's stayed with Bill for all these years. Through all of the turmoil of the Lewinsky scandal and other rumored infidelities, why has their marriage endured?

Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, the divorce question seems to be dogging French President Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife Cecilia.

The couple separated briefly in 2005, but the divorce rumors have been on the rise this week because Cecilia did not travel with her husband on a trip to Bulgaria this week. She was to have been honored by the Bulgarian government, so her absence was conspicuous, to say the least.

She skipped a lunch with President Bush in August — though there are those of us who might not blame her for that — and apparently she's only made three public appearances in an official capacity with her husband.

I remember during the height of Lewinskygate that folks in Europe thought a lot of Americans were overreacting. So it'll be interesting to watch how France reacts if the Sarkozy's marriage does break up.
