In a completely bizarre story, South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford has gone missing since Thursday afternoon. Apparently, he has been out of touch with both his family and his staff. His office has just said that he has been hiking along the Appalachian Trail.

"two words: alien abduction."

Would that it were.

In show business, "hiking the Appalachian Trail" would be code words for either a facelift or a stint in rehab.

Then again, Mr. Sanford could come to New York and join our State Senate which is the only thing close to him in political laughingstock terms these days. This way all the fools would be in one place.

He was hiking. Nothing like an unannounced, cell-phone off-hike to clear the head. Nothing to see here. Move on.

I know a number of states that would like their governors to take a hike.

In the latest bizarre twist, a SC news site is claiming that his state vehicle has been tracked to an Atlanta airport:

I don't know why a married man with four kids would travel to Argentina on Father's Day weekend without telling his wife or staff where he's going.

In an unrelated story, googling the words 'Argentina', 'sex' and 'trade' produces over 342,000 hits.

I'm pretty sure that would be OK, as long as it wasn't Gay Sex!

Nothing. To. See. here. Let's get to the bottom of that HuffPo question at the press conference, instead. THAT is something we need to get to the bottom of. Appalachia,Argentina, no big diff. Move on.

clearly sanford was prepping some undocumented bloggers to ask planted questions at his next press conference.

Well if he can't handle the rigors of a South Carolina legislative session he can't handle the presidency, right?

It's official. Sanford has passed Palin as my first choice for Republican presidential candidate in 2012. Would a Palin/Sanford ticket be too much to ask for?

I just want to say anyone who says this is a sign he's having an affair or will resign is obviously lying and trying to smear a decent christian man. Can we please get away from these politics of personal destruction?
