Federal prosecutors have completed a wide-ranging investigation into John Edwards' political dealings and could indict the two-time presidential candidate within days, a person familiar with the matter said Wednesday.

Amen. NOTHING much wll happen to him except lose his law license but that will make us all SAFER.

He’s paid no price for it, and he isn’t going to. Hyped-up charges will be announced. He’ll plead down, pay a stiff fine, get 10 years probation and lose his license to practice law. Tops.

And a mug shot. Afterwards, he'll work on his memoir. No wait. He'll hire someone to ghost his memoir. He'll work on his tan.

I wonder what sort of secrets Edwards can sing about should they try to push these charges on him?

If he goes into the klink I hope they cut his hair. Him in a crewcut would be hilarious.

He's going on trial for misusing his campaign funds to pay his mistress. The POLITICO story says that Edwards still has $ 2.7 million left in his campaign fund, and he can use that money to pay for his defense...

Doesn't quite seem right..

“still has his love-bunny...”

After a couple months in the Big House, “love bunny” will have a whole new face and shape.

I wonder where all those swooning Iowans are who fell all over themselves for this turd ?

"With hair like that, he will have a good time behind bars."

When I saw the headline, I thought, "He'll make somebody a NICE wife!"

Hy Habeus gets his comeuppance. Thanks Berlin_Freeper.
