What the hell is wrong with this guy????
Seriously, who goes up to teh podium and announces their resignation by saying "I'm really gay and have been cheating on my wife"
Dude, seriously, it's a crappy thing to do to your wife, and frankly I don't care. Just say "I'm announcing today that due to personal/family issues I will be resigning". Seems a little odd that he would do it in this way. Unless he wants to move and become the mayor of San Fran.
In fairness, he was explaining precisely why he was resigning:

1) He's married and had an affair.

2) The affair was with another man.

3) The "other" man was blackmailing him for money to keep the secret and

4) That would prejudice his ability to act in the public interest.

5) In resigning, the blackmailing might not stop and the secret would come out anyway.

So, its hard to resign for family and blackmail reasons and have the blackmail stop. You need to tie it up in a bow and lay it all out.
