DENVER - John Edwards is burning up the phone lines, begging former aides and backers to forgive him for lying about his affair - but hearing their rage instead.
As Democrats kick off their convention Monday, the onetime presidential contender is a man without a party - or a political future - trying to rebuild bridges through dozens of remorseful phone calls.
It's proving a hard sell with onetime true believers.

He should be able to win over the Democrats: they are very forgiving . . . of other socialists.
Pathetic.
Typical POS limo-liberal. Standard fare.
I think he just needs to talk with his wife.
Jimmy Swaggert comes to mind ...
Before everyone starts dancing on Edwards’ political grave—
Once the election is over and all the ‘facts’ are known about who’s the daddy, Edwards will be brought back into the fold (slowly). He’ll be humble for a bit and do good things for the dems to get back into their good graces. It will work, too. This is the dems we’re talking about.
This welcoming back to the fold will be expedited if (God forbid) Elizabeth dies. The widower would be brought back that much sooner.
Hey, call me cynical. lol
My favorite part is where they moan about the fact that he’s losing speaking gigs. Wake up! The man’s a millionaire already. He doesn’t need that money, he needs the ego stroking that goes with the speaking. Nothing more.
Now he’s just another 15 minutes on ‘Cheaters’
Wow! He’s really flying through “The Twelve Steps” isn’t he? He’s already at #8!
Jerk.
Oh wait, That guy will speak and be honored later tonight in Denver.
Whatever happened to Gary Hartpence? He seemed to drop off the face of the earth back in 1988. Whatever cave he climbed into, he ought to make room for the Breck Girl.
Post Winner!
My suggestion for him would be to convert to Republican, and run on an anti-abortion platform. It’s his best chance.

Lol! You’re probably right.
Yeah, there was a headline saying that Kennedy secretly arrived in Denver. All I could think was that the last place he secretly left was poor Mary Jo underwater all those years ago.
Oh, Gary’s around:

Apparently, a meeting of moonba-Democrat Party “leaders” was held, and this was what Donna Rice’s former loverboy said:
“Hart used his remarks to outline three things that he said Obama needed to emphasize to capture the presidency: rebuilding the economy and moving it past its reliance on fossil fuels; restoring voters’ faith in the Democratic Party’s ability to be strong on national security; and recapturing the nation’s “moral authority” in the eyes of the world.”
Good luck with that.
