was so his personal affairs wouldn't have any affect on the Presidential election.
Personally I believe that General Patreaus remains an ethical and moral defender of America despite the possibility of any unwise personal choices he might have made.
Why isn't anyone suggesting that the General himself didn't want his personal life to possibly affect the presidential election oin America so he decided to wait until after the election to come forward.
That's so much more in line with his past behavior as an American soldier.
