John Edwards May Have A Sex Tape
Tweet
If you didn’t already think John Edwards was the scummiest, most moronic politician of the last 20 years or so, this doesn’t help.
Sources have told us that, in the throes of their affair, John Edwards and Rielle Hunter made a sex tape that contains “several sex acts.” And that his aide, Andrew Young found it on an unmarked DVD.
Look, having Bush as President from 2004-8 was a disaster of epic proportions for America, thousands lost their lives and the economy was ruined, but it may have been a blessing politically that this moron never got further in either election.
John Edwards To Admit Paternity Of Love Child
Tweet
The latest chapter in the story of the narcissistic moron who almost destroyed the Demcratic party.
Sources have told WRAL News that they expect former U.S. Sen. John Edwards to admit that he is the father of his former mistress’ 18-month-old daughter.
Shocking.
John Edwards Is A Douchebag
Tweet
First of all, for what he did to his family. Clearly inexcusable. But also what he almost did to America. Had Edwards somehow attained the Democratic nomination, this story would have surely killed his candidacy and elected John McCain. I can’t believe what an asshole this guy is.
Elizabeth, 59, who is terminally ill with cancer, speaks in far more detail than before about her husband’s infidelity in her new memoir, “Resilience,” due to be published May 12 by Broadway Books. A copy was obtained by the Daily News.
Despite feeling deeply deceived, Elizabeth Edwards nonetheless publicly stood by her husband’s side, lending his candidacy the aura of a warm, loving family life.
But she had actually wanted him to quit the race to protect the family. Edwards admitted the hanky-panky to her days after declaring his candidacy in 2006 – almost a year before the National Enquirer reported it.
John Edwards Admits Affair With Rielle Hunter
Tweet
John Edwards repeatedly lied during his Presidential campaign about an extra-marital affair with a novice film-maker, the former Senator admitted to ABC News today.
In an interview for broadcast tonight on Nightline, Edwards told ABC News correspondent Bob Woodruff he did have an affair with 42-year old Rielle Hunter, but said that he did not love her.
His argument that he isn’t the father sounds really shaky, as well as the payoff story. What an amazingly irresponsible, immoral and reckless thing to do — I mean, this is a guy who was running for president.
Bullet dodged.
Ticket?
Tweet
I’ve seriously pooh-poohed the idea that Obama would pick Edwards as his running mate. I still think its unlikely. But man, this looks like a ticket.

I, and other people, think that Obama needs an older possibly gubernatorial person to balance his negatives but he may go the Clinton route and pick a candidate that echoes himself. If anything, the optics of two young looking candidates versus McCain would be amplified.

John Edwards Endorsing Obama
Tweet
The party‘s coming together.
CNN has confirmed that former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards will endorse Barack Obama at a Michigan campaign event about an hour from now.
Too Late For John Edwards?

Am I the only one who gets the sense that this speech
from John Edwards isn’t going to really get the senator anywhere? He’s sort of in that limbo-zone between frontrunner and fringe that nobody wants to be in, and he seems to think being kind of bold will get him out of that rut. But the thing is, like his post-2004 rediscovery of movement liberalism and regret for the Iraq War – wouldn’t this speech have had more potency if he had given it before he was running third to Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama? That is, it’s not hard to give a tough speech when you’ve got (relatively) nothing to lose as opposed to one when you’re leading the pack.
I like Sen. Edwards a lot but I just feel like his campaign has been stuck in the muck for a long-ass time and they are nowhere near digging out.
Gold. Pure Gold.

John Edwards on Rove.
Edwards Camp Tries To Woo Back Angelina Jolie
Tweet
The saga we continue to document (because we need an excuse to post Angelina Jolie pictures) continues.
Edwards press secretary Eric Schultz, at the bottom of an email to supporters:
“P.S. Angelina, I swear I lost your number. Call me. Didn’t realize you’d hold a grudge like this.”
Will this passive campaigning work? Couldn’t Obama or Clinton swoop in with a phone call just about now and get Angelina on board?
Angelina Jolie For John Edwards
Tweet
The Edwards campaign gets a nuclear addition to combat Halle Berry and Jessica Biel for Obama and Katharine McPhee for Hillary.
They got into a huge fight about politics (Brad supports Barack Obama, while Angie’s a John Edwards fan.) Brad ended up calling her immature. He says the next thing he knew, Angie was cursing at him and throwing a glass of wine in his face.”
We use Fox News standards to determine these endorsements so third-hand gossip in celebrity magazines are as good as a direct statement.
