This Guy Was 3 Million Votes Away From Being Vice President
Three Fingers of Politics ^ | January 18, 2011 | Stupac

Posted on 01/18/2011 10:31:09 AM PST by Superstu321

John Edwards, as everyone knows is a complete scumbag, a liar, and an all around terrible human being. Just today it was reported that he knew about the money being funneled to his then mistress, Rielle “Just-call-me-Mommy” Hunter. Add this to litany of other sketchy, if not illegal, things he’s done and it truly becomes mind-blowing. This man was a U.S. Senator, and was three million votes away from becoming the Vice President of the United States. As much as I want to turn this into a “look who the Democrats are promoting as candidates” style post, you just can’t. No one had any idea this guys was such a terrible person (and if they did they’re even worse for putting up with it).

The killer is that you know he loves ANY media attention he gets, whether it’s positive or negative. I propose as part of our “new tone,” that people are talking about, we should stop talking about these sorts of people. It’s a waste of anyone’s time to sit through a news story about this clown. He serves no purpose and was nothing short of a scar on what’s left of the dignity of the Senate.

Throw him in jail already, and let him become “oh so pretty” to a prison pimp.

That clown always stuck me as more the weatherman type or the gameshow host type than the US congressman type.

Nobody really cares about the Breck Girl any longer.
He is yesterday's news and no longer impactful on the national stage.
Senator Edwards doesn't represent a threat to good conservatives.

Worse than that could be that we end up with someone at the White House who might sound like a Communist, act like a communist, and be surrounded by communists, and have been mentored by a bunch of communists in his early political and educational life.

He was a scumbag - and the MSM, including the New York Times - did their best to cover for him...

You think that Algore was an improvement over Edwards? They are both cut of the same democrat vice-presidential cloth.

"John Edwards, as everyone knows is a complete scumbag, a liar, and an all around terrible human being."

Unfortunately, we only found this out after the elections. Perhaps exposing and ridiculing a guy like this now will discourage others from running in the future.

Actually, I think Kerry was even worse. They sure do come up with some very strange people. And the MSM loves them. It took a supermarket tabloid to kill off Edwards.

You're wrong. Edwards is a great example of what the MSM is willing to do, to 'not do', and to cover for...

Much of the MSM was willing to back him to be President - not just VP.

Edward's is the poster boy for MSM Bias - and liberal corruption.

Too sleazy for those. I always had him pegged as a used car salesman.

If you know a true lefty liberal, John Edwards was their favorite. All looks no substance, and a heart of left wing brass.

Used car salesmen are at least doing something worthwhile in the economy. He always struck me as the lowest of the low, a plaintiff’s attorney, you know, ambulance chaser type.

Elizabeth Edwards, while serving as his unassailable (dying of cancer) attack dog knew what a reprehensible scum bag she was attempting to foist off upon us as a legitimate Presidential candidate.

Actually, I believe flipping a mere twenty thousand votes in Ohio would have made Jean-François Kerry-Heinz president.
