John Edwards promised Rielle Hunter they'd be together - report
NY Daily News ^ | 8/20/08 | Larry McShane

One-time Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards promised his mistress they would reunited once his cancer-stricken wife died, the National Enquirer reported.

The Enquirer - which first broke word of the Edwards scandal - also reported that mistress Rielle Hunter refuses to make Edwards take a paternity test because she fears it will jeopardize their future.

Edwards, who admitted the affair earlier this month after repeated denials, remains in contact with Hunter even now, according to the Enquirer.

The North Carolina politician called her after his Aug. 8 confession on national television, reportedly telling her: "We'll be together when Elizabeth is gone."

He's burying Elizabeth already, it appears.

Unless they have this on tape, they’re just hurting Mr. Edwards’ family for no good reason.

Just think, he was almost V.P.

Well, we all have to move on.....

The media is not hurting Mr Edward's family. Mr Edward's hurt his own family repeatedly and tried to do to the American people what he enjoyed doing to Rielle Hunter.

We need to shove a stake deep enough into his political heart to make sure that he is never able to resurrect his political career. I'm sorry for his wife and kids but this man craves power and were it not for the tabloids he would continue his over the top behavior which would include attempts at the highest office in the land.

Maybe she is trying to make it a better life for her children after she dies or maybe she knew about it and decided it wasn’t worth the fight since she has other things to worry about that are more important than her SOB husband.

IIRC, I think they do have it from an intercepted cell call. That is what the guy (don't remember his name) from the NE alluded to on Fox awhile back. When pressed how he would have that call, he refused to answer.

I think it was Edwards' behavior which allowed this scandal to be visited upon his family. That said, if I was Elizabeth, I think I'd turn him into a castrati. It's not like she'd get anything but probation given the circumstances.

Sarcasm is my strong suit.

JE is a horndog. Just like his mentor, Slick.

“When pressed how he would have that call, he refused to answer.”

The same way they had Newt on his cell phone. And I don’t mean some “ordinary citizens” getting it “accidentally” on a scanner.

Would that be the same way that Prince Charles' (when he was married to Princess Diana) was outed telling Camilla that he wished he were her insertable feminine hygeine product?

Apparently not.

After hearing the “We’ll be together...” line. Elizabeth Edwards should divorce his a**. Not for herself but to ensure her children’s stake in his fortune. Otherwise, he will cut those kids out at the request of his paramour.

my guess is that the loony mistress has been the “anonymous source” all along.

It has been documented how she spoke poorly of Elizabeth.
This is more bile she is throwing at the suffering wife.

I have no idea where her cancer stage is but I lost my Mom to cancer a few years back and there are times where it is all you can do to stay coherent. She’s probably not going to do anything. His example of family and leadership is disgusting.

Feel sorry for the children. They are going to end up with this new-agey skank as a mother-in-law.
