This story is not just about infidelity. It is about lying to the public, his supporters, and America at a time when he was running for president.

Also, there is the question of him hiring an unqualified "film maker" that turned out to be his mistress using campaign funds.

You haven't heard half the story yet. Don't expect the MSM to come clean. They spent years building this man up as a champion for the little guy when we all realize he is just a scumbag politician.

Shame on Elizabeth to "stand by her man" for political gain.

We actually sent money to John Edwards - not much, because we don't have much. But we liked that he was the only guy talking with clarity about poverty in America. And for us and other donors, it's a bummer knowing that his campaign took some of these donations to pay his mistress who had never made a film before simply so that they could be together.

But you're right - this is no less distasteful than McCain's philandering, or the whole sordid Cindy McCain story. It's just a big ol' disappointment, that's all.

He obviously has already made his apologies to his wife and family and worked seriously on his issue YEARS AGO, so why does this have to be such a big deal? John McCain is married to his former mistress and nobody's rolling their eyes about that. Why roll your eyes about the fact that Edwards says that it's not his baby? Someone else has already claimed fatherhood. You should post Elizabeth Edwards' comments, she's handling it so respectably and admirably.
