I wouldn't wish divorce on my worst enemy, so I hope this doesn't sound too callous....

I hope this divorce doesn't have a impact on how he does his job, because we really need him to get the budget passed in the Legislature or to manage a pretty bad disaster in state funding if he can't.      The loss of funding for the state parks is appaling, but the closing of rural hospitals & reduction in social/healthcare services will be be devastating to Alabama.  

Breaking up with your wife while at war with your own political party has to be the worst of both worlds.
