Many have called 2009 as the Year of the Serial Cheaters. Late Show host David Letterman admitted to a series of covert relationships, vice-presidential candidate John Edwards revealed a liaison while his terminally ill wife was out campaigning for him, and South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford disappeared for a week to rendezvous with an Argentine lover. Then Tiger Woods's fairy-tale life came crashing down when he admitted to numerous "transgressions", leaving millions of people wondering why and how he could lead such a double life.
