Just think, had he sold to one of those, taken the money, and ran then we could have finished up with another almost as bad as Ashley himself, and then have to have gone through another four**** years of misery
NO NO NO

and knowing ashley he stuck with amanda, jamie & co either because
a) it was better for him
b) they would cause the biggest controversy/uproar afterwards
