More questions than answers have been raised since SC Governor Mark Sanford "confessed" after having been caught leaving the country in order to chase some tail.

And what about those emails? It appears there was a problem in verifying the authenticity of them. They came from an anonymous source, according to the major South Carolina newspaper, The State, but:

Then, acting on another anonymous tip that Sanford would be on a plane returning from Argentina, the paper sent a reporter to Atlanta.

When Sanford got off a plane from Buenos Aires, he stopped an interview with The State when asked if he had been with anyone in Argentina.

The State then contacted Sanford’s office and a former aide, explicitly saying it had e-mails between the governor’s personal e-mail address and an Argentine woman and thought them to be genuine.
