Just a tad to much togetherness for me, but for them it worked. If she did start playing power politics, that isn't to smart. Even ignoring the problems with doing this at work with your spouse, if the decision is someone has to go, which is more likely? The behind the scenes bureau chief or the 'face' that viewers are looking at. Unless FNC was ready to push Brit out anyway, she was going to lose in the power politics game unless Brit just didn't play.
