“[After her 18-day disappearance in 1974:] I love my husband very, very much, but he didn't ask me when he ran for mayor and he didn't consult me about running for governor. It would be nice to be asked. ...

But I am now because I went away. I am a changed woman.”

Men thus have more control over when they make their contributions than women do.”
