Chris Woodruff…

I have to admit being gullible enough to have accepted John Edwards story as I watched the first tel [...]…

"We're talking about two people that aren't holding or seeking a public office."

Not a VP possibility, not a Cabinet possibility, nothing?

Has he not held public office in the past? And sought to be VP?

If he engages in misconduct and dishonesty now, why should we trust him in office?

AR,
Dog bites man... or man bites dog...

It shouldn't surprise you in the least that:
A) A man cheated on his wife
B) That man and his wife lied about it to protect their reputations

Moreover, it has no effect on my life, or on yours. We're talking about two people that aren't holding or seeking a public office.

Chris – yeah, no need to even think about this story, huh? I mean, really, if you can't figure out an angle to blame and beat up Bush and the Republicans (Sil's likely drug-induced conspiracy rambling aside), then why cover ANY story, right?

This is a tough one because we want Elizabeth Edwards to fit our stereotype of the poor besmirched cancer-stricken wife.

I do in fact feel badly for her, but as I have written and believe even more strongly with every new revelation, she shared her husband's lust for political prominence and power and she allowed this to get the best of her. Hillary Clinton, minus the cancer, was the same way.

Yeah, not to pick on you Joe, but I don't see any particular public value in this story.

Kaus was/is tainted by his fling with Coulter. The woman has terminal cancer and is staying with her husband for their children's sake, whats so strange about this? Will Kaus wonder like the Limpbaugh about the reason for Edwards…

Glad to see you all focusing on the Edwards extramarital activities.

It did take a really long time for this story to surface; but then again, Edwards was getting a little close to making the Obama ticket look like a win as its VP. The GOP, via proxies, chose this timing (even though the Edwards scandal was "in play" for quite some time but not being surfaced mainstream) to make sure Edwards didn't get on the Obama ticket.

There's another, nearly identical, but far more seedy story "in play" that hasn't been allowed to surface yet.

Just after Denver, look for that to happen.

I said before that Obama getting ahead in this race will be his undoing, precisely and identically like it was Edwards'. If he does, they'll take him down. If he doesn't, he'll lose anyway, predictably.

Everyone get behind Obama!

I'm going to call the Obama campaign from now on "The Lemming Syndrome"...
