John Edwards could of been the leader of the country. Now he is going to be a homeless unemployed bum

Hey Worse,
Obama was disrespectful to his own Grandma, and repudiated his pastor of twenty years. It all comes with the territory, a bunch of arrogant men. Isn't it time for a change?

John Edwards is going to live with what he did for the rest of his life. When his wife dies he will look back and see what he did to her and how much he hurt her. It is heartbreaking.

Paul, people on both sides of the aisle care, that's who cares. He could have been the candidate! That was the intention for running, and his family headed out full-bore with this secret. Our society is not to the place where this is fully condoned, though we are forgetful (witness Bill Clinton). Democrats would have been sunk in the general election, even had he been VP. Republicans, ones who don't like to see the downfall of Dems just because of who they are, care because it's another one biting the dust who could have been an example of trustworthiness and charatyer in our gov't.

We donated our hard-earned money for Edwards to spend on mistresses (under the cover of so called "political videos"). He should give the political donations back to his betrayed supporters (eventually donating extra to groups that support poor women battling cancer or husband infidelity).

Actually, let's face it; John Edwards is a HOT BABE. I was surprised he hadn't had an affair. Of course, he is a good man and held out a long time. He lost his son, thought he would lose his wife, very vulnerable stage in his life. Then add the fact that he has obviously been quite wholesome and in walks the female player ready to go fishin'. Women all over must have been throwing themselves at him. Sorry we have the hottest guys in politics on our side, the downfall is megaloads of temptation coming their way. However, Al Gore was a real hottie in his day (still is to me) and he has managed to remain "decent." But then Al is a total type A. The media's role, is something to be suspicious about, but Edwards was weak, not evil. He still stood for the people who needed someone to stand up for them in our society; that makes him AWESOME to many of us including Elizabeth who continued to promote him as a servant of the PEOPLE, that says a lot.....

It's funny how republicans don't seem to think there was anything wrong with McCain cheating. In fact they seem to be making excuses. Go figure.

The McCain story is old news. It has been reported, disected and debated for 25 years. Edwards on the other hand lied thru his teeth all the while asking us to believe him and nominate him to be president. I hope this was worth it to him. Now the feds are supposedly interested in why his campaign finance chief feels the need to support this woman with his "own" money and whether or not it came from campaign donations. I think this story and his lies are going to be around for a while. Poor Elisabeth this is how she has to live out her last days.

Sherry, we don't often elect leaders battling cancer. Her prospects for survival don't look good. It's one thing to sympathize with her, but elect her as VP?

This scandal needs to be put to rest. Whoever has any compassion for Elisabeth Edwards? Let it go! Can you imagine what it is doing to her. Why? Should Elisabeth keep on being crucified! For the media to have something to write about! How cheap!

I just wanted to comment on the Obama attackers. McCain is a big time liar or flopper. He seems to change his stands on the issues depending on which conservative group denouces his tax plan, energy plan, etc.
As far as Edwards he should establish a Politicians Reform group with donations from Spitzer, Craig, Vitter and probably the white hair dude.

John is not a loser, just a fallible human-being like us all. Please, if there is a perfect being gracing this blog, PLEASE let me know. I will vote for you.

McCain's story is old, very old news - Clinton's story is fairly old news. The Edwards story is new news - thanks to the Mainstream Media who buried it for a year. I thought Edwards was pro-abortion. Guess it didn't work this time!

To bad he continues to lie to her.

does anyone see a pattern here with MEN. They want total control of the world and take advantage of all women.

WELL THIS IS NOT SURPRISING AT ALL. THE ETHICS OF OUR GOVERNMENT OFFICALS, SPORTS PLAYERS AND CELEBRITIES ARE HORRIBLE. AND THEY WONDER WHY THE REST OF THE COUNTRY IS IN BAD SHAPE--DAH, THINK ABOUT IT YOU POLITIANS, PLAYERS AND ACTORS. WHAT HEROS YOU ARE NOT!!!!!!!!

I think McCain's past is a consideration, just as Obama's past and his relationships are a consideration in determining who would be a better president. Everything should be taken as a whole. From what I know, McCain has been with his current wife for 30 years, so that speaks highly of him in the here and now. Democrats had better be careful about trying to bring up McCains' affair from 30 years ago, just look at Edwards (and what he said about narcissism and ego) and don't be surprised if something should come out about Obama.

My prayers adn thoughts are with Elizabeth and the children, may Elizabeth find the comfort, strength and love to move beyond this betrayal, and have many blue skies days ahead for her. She has enough on her plate with the illness and should not have to deal with the antics of her husband and Reille Hunter, Elizabeth Edwards has always been a very classy lady and her determination and resilence during this time has been as classy as she has ever been. Elizabeth you are an admired and stron woman, my prayers are definitely with you!

I hope Elizabeth knows that she and her children are in our prayers, and I hope somehow she will have the physical and emotional strength to show whatshisface the door.

He told her in "installments" -- exactly like he thinks he's going to be able to do with the public. The first installment is just the tip of a very polluted iceberg.

I agree that in public Elizabeth Edwards comes across as a classy lady. After learning of her husbands cheap affair, I can understand Elizabeth holding on to her marriage and family. Afterall, that is all she has when her life is getting short.

I don't agree that Elizabeth should have continued her support for her husband's campaign. She should have put a stop to the campaign and not allowed the lie to be continued on to the American people. People who gave money, time, and sacrificed careers for Edwards. Elizabeth also spoke badly about Hillary during the campaign while hiding her own deceit and her husband's lies. I wish Elizabeth well and a happy time with her children.
