Looks like Breck won't have to worry about being the pretty boy in the slammer.

and a former staff videographer, Rielle Mellon

Guess the Times can't afford proofreaders anymore.

[Uncle Slayton]

Agents of the Obama-Clinton-Soros-Edwards Machine must have gotten to the jurors.

[NormsRevenge]

Did he smile and wink at the jury..

[tennmountainman]

Looks like the same jury that let Casey Anthony off.

These jury morons probably don’t even have a high school education.

[GeronL]

always a ‘good’ sign when jury members are openly flirting with the defendant. lol

[Darksheare]

Didn’t they catch one of the jurors flirting with Silky Pony?

Instead of “to big to fail” he’s to pretty to jail.

[tflabo]

Silky Pony rides again. Is Rielle gonna ride him like a Lady Godiva, ehehehe. Taxpayers savings let him go-who cares-—hes done politically.

[dead]

The funny thing is that his actions were never in question. He did the things he is accused of and nobody denies it.

The question of guilt hinged on whether or not it is legal for a politician to take money for his political campaign and spend it on hushing up his whore.

This jury couldn't decide if that's against the law for a politician.

They should at least have to set up a separate whore-hushing fund, just to maintain an ethical appearance.

For now, until I learn more, let me summarize with the thought that if John Edwards is not found guilty of violation of campaign finance laws, NOBODY EVER WILL!

---

Maybe no Democrat will.

[MindBender26]

Actually, this is not as bad as it seems.

#1. Another defense will cost him at least another million dollars.

#2. His witnesses are now locked into their testimony, which the DOJ and Fox, etc. will now have months to discredit.

#3. The public hates mistrials. The jury pool will be even more against him next time.

Smart defs cut a deal after a mistrial. Stupid ones get convicted the second time around.

[Paladin2]

It’s extremely difficult to nail a greasy ‘rat.

[Fast Moving Angel]

Dayum. I was kinda hoping he would get to share a cell with Rod Blagojevich — they could do each others’ hair.

[bgill]

As if anyone couldn’t see a mistrial coming what with all the jury antics.

[Notary Sojac]

Look, John Edwards is lower than the hairs on a centipede's belly. You will get no argument from me on that.

But the law he is accused of breaking is a bad law, a law which no one should be convicted under.

So I'm pretty conflicted here.....

[eyedigress]

I don’t have a serious problem with this. It would be hard for me to justify an OJ “not guilty” and Edwards getting locked up for some shaky FEC violations. They have done what was needed to do. Go home John.

I sure am glad you put this in Breaking News. I might have missed it. Yesterday.
