  Schultz: Women can have major influence on politics | mountvernonnews.com
Schultz, who has taken a leave of absence from her job during her husband’s campaign, kept nearly 75 Democratic women laughing, listening and thinking as she regaled them with stories about politics, women’s voting rights, writing and her life growing up the daughter of a staunch union worker.

Schultz also encouraged the women to find five people who are undecided about who to vote for and take them under their wing, encouraging them to vote Democrat, but mainly to vote.

So, I think Connie taking a leave was the right thing to do given the way things are today and with the way she loves her job probably a very difficult thing to do.
The article while a bit smaltzy is accurate, if Sherrod was anything but a politician Connie would have never been placed in that position where she had to make a decision.
connie is making herself an issue, she is the only one talking about how hard it is to be married to a politician, she is the only one who decided to write about it, i'm afraid she's put herself under a microscope.
