They have been together 34 years and were married in San Francisco before it was ruled illegal.

10. This is why McCain's first marriage failed.

And Giuliani and Thompson too. Out of the top Republicans who ran for president this year, the only guy with one wife was the Mormon. And after the ruling today in California, Romney's marriage might be in trouble.

:silly:
