So does this now increase his chances of being appointed Obama’s Attorney General?

No, to put it to rest I’ll bet he wrote a check and forced her to sign a piece of paper.

It certainly seems worth waiting up for! :-)

Hope all’s well. By the way, your tagline these days is one of my favorite Dire Straits tunes!

Edwards. Take the Paternity Test.
Kerry, sign and release the Form 180. That should do it for the un-dynamic duo of 2004.

"Yeah right, the kid is not his. Sure."

Yeah, really. If the kid isn't yours, why go visit the mother and kid in the wee hours of the morning at a hotel you're not even registered at.

I wouldn’t count on the MSM being embarrassed by their pathetic NON-coverage of this issue. In fact, I fully expect to see the following headlines in the next few days:

EDWARDS ADMITS AFFAIR; GOP NOT READY TO FORGIVE

JOHN EDWARDS: MAN WITH NOBLE FLAW

ELIZABETH EDWARDS STANDS BY HER MAN

and last, but not least—

EDWARDS AFFAIR; BUSH’S FAULT

Yeah, can you see her having to tell her child “I know Daddy denied you were his, but it was for his political career. You understand, don’t you darling?”

That is the truth. A sad state of journalism when the National Enquirer has more credibility than the dinosaur media? Just damn.

Edwards denied paying any money to Hunter to keep her from going public but said it was possible some of his friends or supporters may have made payments without telling him.

What a pantload. Why would his "friends" do such a thing if the child were not his...? Those are some friends to step up like that. We're supposed to believe their motives in providing money was purely alturistic...? This house of cards is only getting taller and will be a further distraction to the Dems. Fine by me.

So he had an affair with a woman who had another affair?

No kidding. It's bad enough he outright admits that she's a homewrecker..next he says she's a slutty homewrecker. If I was Reille I'd be pretty ticked off.

John’s story is so full of holes. He says he made “a point” of telling Hunter his wife’s cancer was in remission when he started the affair. Why, so she wouldn’t think that he is the bottom feeder we all know him to be?

Second thing - if he “didn’t love” Hunter and the child isn’t his, then why betray his wife again by sneaking into Hunter’s hotel room in the middle of the night?
