Where did Sanford go? Sighted in Atlanta.

The question of where South Carolina governor Mark Sanford disappeared to has been the big political question (outside of healthcare) for the past day or so.

First, his wife said he left on Thursday to write. Eventually, his office said that he was hiking on the Appalachian Trail. Which led people to find out that Sunday was Naked Hiking Day on the Appalachian Trail.

Now, we find out that he had been sighted in Atlanta (where his cell phone was tracked to), according to WYFF news.

On Tuesday, sources told News 4's Nigel Robertson that a state vehicle is missing and was tracked down, not to the Appalachian Trail, but to the Hartsfield-Jackson Airport in Atlanta.

Sources told Robertson that a federal agent spotted Sanford in the airport boarding a plane. Robertson was told that the governor was not accompanied by security detail.

Sanford has been out of reach for more than four days, including Father's Day.

He has four kids.

Also of note, his Lt. Gov. went on TV and blasted him. From Daily Kos TV:
