Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Did someone other than the Enquirer finally pick up the story?
ABC says that in an interview for broadcast tonight on Nightline, Mr. Edwards told ABC News correspondent Bob Woodruff he did have an affair with the woman, Rielle Hunter, but did not father her child, as has been reported by the National Enquirer.
Funny: I found him
Yay, Shrift!!
When Edwards was still in the presidential race, a friend of mine who used to work in trial law and whose bosses were high enough muckety mucks that they did the social rounds with Edwards when he was still working as an attorney, told me that she could never vote for him because she'd seen the sorts of things he was capable of as an attorney. In her words, "He's the guy who'd sell his grandmother in order to get a favorable verdict."

That's not necessarily a bad quality in a chief executive. I mean, his job was to get a favorable verdict. And I don't really know his grandma.

My brother, who is an attorney in NC, has met him and said he was nice enough but his hair was freakishly immobile.
I feel sorry for Edwards' wife, who gets to deal with cancer and seeing her marriage concerns dragged through the press for the next while.
I'd have been a lot more thrilled about Edwards's candidacy if all those progressive ideals had been in evidence when he was representing me in the Senate. Or if he'd been in evidence when he was etc.
On edit, this:

Is absolutely true. I was unimpressed enough with him as a Senator that I spew venom on cue, but the real focus should be Elizabeth, who is by all accounts both fabulous and wronged.

One could say the same of Jimmy Johnson. Actually, you could also probably say of Jimmy Johnson that he'd sell his grandma for a winning season.
Yeah. I still admire him for bringing poverty to the forefront and all that, too.
