Sounds like her cancer has recurred. Awful. I’m no fan of the Silky one but I didn’t want to see him go this way.
Standby.
Update: Michelle got to Moran’s post before I could link but it’s spot on so I’m linking it anyway. He’s a distant third and the primary schedule doesn’t favor him so he can’t afford a long absence. Hopefully his wife’s cancer isn’t aggressive, in which case maybe he’s only out for a month or two.
Assuming he’s out for good, does this tempt Gore? Edwards at this point is just a poor man’s Goracle anyway: white, southern, showily environmentalist, and a veteran of national campaigns. The only difference is Silky’s class demagoguery, but that shouldn’t pose too much of a problem. Gore could enter, take most of Edwards’s 10% and draw another 10 from Hillary and Obama (mostly Hillary) and he’d be right in the thick of it. What am I missing?
Update: Taegan Goddard’s hearing the same thing as Politico.
Update: Surprise! Edwards just said he won’t be suspending his campaign.
I don’t think Politico and Goddard got played so much as they might have been working off stale information. Edwards’s wife said that the news about her condition looked grim until only yesterday, when they got more test results back and things looked brighter. So maybe the plan had been to suspend and then got cancelled at the eleventh hour.
Update: When I say her condition looked better than first though, I mean relatively:
Medical tests yesterday confirmed that Elizabeth Edwards’ cancer has spread to the bone, the couple announced.
“The biopsy showed the cancer had returned and it was malignant,” John Edwards said. “We are very optimistic about this.”
The cancer is not curable but it is treatable, John Edwards said.
He compared it at the presser to diabetes, something that’ll have to be managed for the rest of the life.
Update: As suspected, Ben Smith says his source had only heard the results of the first round of medical tests, not the newer one.

To Sen. Edwards: sincerest best wishes for your wife’s health. You have your priorities right. I hope you can return to the campaign.
shaken on March 22, 2007 at 11:30 AM
Me, too, either. Get well, Elizabeth.
Kid from Brooklyn on March 22, 2007 at 11:32 AM
Best wishes to the Edwards family and to Elizabeth for a full recovery. Say what you want about the man as a politician, but his priorities are well in order on this one.
World B. Free on March 22, 2007 at 11:33 AM
Best wishes to his wife, him, and their family.
I wonder if the moonbats will want him to continue for the good of the country anyway? Perhaps they will claim this is a Rovian plot?
Rove, you magnificent bastard!
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 11:34 AM
My best wishes to Ms. Edwards, but I question the timing.
This sounds a lot like a political sympathy ploy to me.
If Edwards does bow out of the race because of this, my personal respect for him would go way up.
Lawrence on March 22, 2007 at 11:34 AM
That poor lady. Ditto the sentiments from World B Free.
sunny on March 22, 2007 at 11:36 AM
Pray for them.
Valiant on March 22, 2007 at 11:38 AM
I hope it’s not the cancer, but I can’t feel too bad about Edwards dropping out. It was hard to take him seriously.
However, I wouldn’t wish cancer on anyone.
E L Frederick (Sniper One) on March 22, 2007 at 11:43 AM
Another ditto here. Fight the good fight and get back on your feet. God bless. Prayers for you and your family.
Grunt2Jag on March 22, 2007 at 11:44 AM
I concur with what has been said about Edwards’ priorities - bravo, Senator Edwards and best wishes to your family.
Slublog on March 22, 2007 at 11:45 AM
I echo Lawrence.
steveegg on March 22, 2007 at 11:45 AM
That isn’t good. I hope everything turns out okay for them. It would be horrible to have a wife go through that.
csdeven, Lawrence…
you two have some serious self-examination to do. We’re talking about someone maybe having to drop out of a political race because their wife has cancer. If you feel the need to bring the word “moonbat” or other political cynicism into it, it’s probably best just to not say anything… don’t ya think?
I dunno, maybe it’s just me.
DaveS on March 22, 2007 at 11:46 AM
sincerely…best wishes, god bless!
stevezilla on March 22, 2007 at 11:47 AM
Yeah, best wishes from one whose wife also has a serious illness.
Practically speaking, though, he could suspend his campaign, seeing as the race began, like, last November. I’d love for a yellow flag to go up and everyone suspend their campaigns for at least six months.
saint kansas on March 22, 2007 at 11:49 AM
I hope it’s not serious, and that she can make a recovery.
liquidflorian on March 22, 2007 at 11:50 AM
A true sentiment as far as it goes.
On the other hand, however, I’ll be interested to see how Kos/Huffy/DU take this news… especially when they sacrificed Marcotte on his altar. Whenever something happens to a Democrat, wild rumors seep out of the Left telling of the most magical happenings. AIDS cannons, Hurricane Rays, Stroke Guns, Rovian Mind Control, a magical Jewish Stock-Market-Lever… As Joy Behar said, “I know what this party is capable of… Sorcery!”
Well, she didn’t say “sorcery”, but you get the idea.
Lehosh on March 22, 2007 at 11:53 AM
K - I have just read all your posts of sympathy. Can’t help but compare them against the posts on other sites regarding Cheney’s leg problems.
I wish you the best Mrs. Edwards. I have known several people that battled breast cancer. I am so sorry for you. Best wishes and keep up the fight.
Babs on March 22, 2007 at 11:53 AM
I do hope that Mrs. Edwards recovers fully from her cancer. I really, really, don’t like the guy, but losing a son and now a wife with cancer I couldn’t wish on anyone.
Still, does he really have a choice about suspending/ending his campaign? If he did decide to go full speed ahead running for president while his wife is battling cancer, wouldn’t that lose him tons of voters? I know he’s smart enough to realize this.
Regardless, I hope she gets better.
Dudley Smith on March 22, 2007 at 11:53 AM
Cap’n Ed over at Captain’s Quarters has it right. Best wishes and prayers for Mrs. Edwards. Lay off the political disagreements with her husband in this context.
I hope the news isn’t as bad as we’re fearing.
Retread on March 22, 2007 at 11:54 AM
Best wishes for a speedy and full recovery to the entire Edwards family.
I have already seen some very sick posts on other blogs regarding this terrible news. It is good to see the high moral standards and outright class of the fine commenters here at Hot Air.
db on March 22, 2007 at 11:59 AM
It is stuff like this - an entire thread full of people sincerely wishing a speedy recovery to their political opponents (or his spouse, in this case) - that makes me so proud to be conservative.
I won’t belabor the point - but if you’ve paid attention, you know that a thread like this would simply not appear on a liberal site. Ever. Ask Laura Ingraham.
Kudos to all of you.
Professor Blather on March 22, 2007 at 12:01 PM
You bet a permanent exit, if it came to that, would tempt High Priest Algore. I seem to remember a few class-warfare barbs from him as well.
However, you’re missing the fact that the ‘Rats don’t like losers. Once one loses in the Electoral College, they’re discarded into the “Elder Statesman” pile. Just ask Carter, Kerry, Mondale, et al.
steveegg on March 22, 2007 at 12:01 PM
Just because I wouldn’t vote for him is no reason not to wish him and his family well.
Show’s some priorities also.
CBarker on March 22, 2007 at 12:02 PM
Please don’t take this as insenstive or political, but in light of yesterday’s circus on the Hill, I’d so much rather see hundreds of billions of dollars put into medical research than “climate change.” There are so many other priorities.
saint kansas on March 22, 2007 at 12:04 PM
It’s just you Dave. My comments were not directed at Edwards (notice I didn’t call him Silky?). My comments are directed at his supporters, who by all accounts can be counted to spew forth the most insane drival. Regardless of Edwards situation, the moonbats are fair game at all times.
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 12:04 PM
All the best to the Edwards family; I pray that this is a false-alarm, but if not, then Edwards has the correct priorities. I heard last night that he was going to make an announcement today, and assumed it regarded his wife’s cancer history.
And DaveS was spot-on… Lawrence/csdeven… now is not the time to be ‘questioning the timing’.
dalewalt on March 22, 2007 at 12:06 PM
Glad to see someone else got what i was saying.
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 12:06 PM
She truly is his better half and hope that she recovers soon. She will be in my prayers.
Catie96706 on March 22, 2007 at 12:06 PM
Read and try to understand before commenting OK?
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 12:09 PM
Best wishees to Edwards and his family. I hope things go well for them. Thoughts and prayers.
StoutRepublican on March 22, 2007 at 12:11 PM
I think this global warming act is going to be a millstone around Gore’s neck. And as someone else mentioned, he’s a political loser.
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 12:11 PM
Edwards’ campaign says that Politico is incorrect.
Enoxo on March 22, 2007 at 12:13 PM
My heart sank when I saw the tv because I just knew what was coming, even though all I saw was the headline for a press conference.
Take care of yourself Mrs Edwards.
CrimsonFisted on March 22, 2007 at 12:13 PM
The semi-psuedo conservatives can bash Ann with some more PC speech and keep Edwards campaign breathing until he returns.
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 12:15 PM
What the hell does that have to do with this story?
Slublog on March 22, 2007 at 12:17 PM
Terrible news. Best wishes to Mr. and Mrs. Edwards and their family. Cancer is a terrible thing to struggle with.
Citizen Duck on March 22, 2007 at 12:19 PM
If it’s true and he has to suspend his campaign, I can’t see him coming back. The road is much longer and harder now.
He needs to be with his wife, he seems to know that. Good for him. Good wishes to both of them.
Rightwingsparkle on March 22, 2007 at 12:20 PM
I think all Democratic candidates should suspend their campaigns out of respect for the Edwards family.
infidel on March 22, 2007 at 12:21 PM
The Edwards’ are coming out now.
steveegg on March 22, 2007 at 12:21 PM
I think all candidates should suspend their campaigns for the sake of sanity.
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 12:23 PM
All our best wishes and prayers to you Mrs Edwards. Get well.
Limerick on March 22, 2007 at 12:23 PM
If I have to explain that to you, I wonder where you’ve been since the CPAC.
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 12:25 PM
Bone cancer now. Not curable, but treatable.
steveegg on March 22, 2007 at 12:26 PM
I know what you’re talking about, but I just think it’s a bit inappropriate.
Slublog on March 22, 2007 at 12:26 PM
Why?
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 12:29 PM
God does work everything for His good; if it wouldn’t have been for a cracked rib, this cancer wouldn’t have been found nearly this early.
No suspension of the campaign.
steveegg on March 22, 2007 at 12:29 PM
Well, the semi-pseudo conservatives can save their energy to bash a different conservative.
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 12:30 PM
He just made his announcement. Her cancer has spread into her bones (a rib).
He said that his campaign will go on and he won’t be dropping out.
georgej on March 22, 2007 at 12:30 PM
The campaign goes on…
John on March 22, 2007 at 12:30 PM
I’m sorry to hear this. While I am also no fan of Edwards, I’d never wish ill upon him or his family. It’s just politics, after all.
Mrs. Edwards and her family are in my prayers.
violet on March 22, 2007 at 12:31 PM
Because I do not believe everything Edwards-related needs to end up with a conversation about poor, misunderstood Ann Coulter.
Slublog on March 22, 2007 at 12:31 PM
His national priorities are screwed up, but at least his personal pritorities are correct.
Best of luck and prayers to him and his family.
right2bright on March 22, 2007 at 12:33 PM
Did she just play the absolute moral authority card? Can anyone disagree with her insane view of his campaign without having the PC beast rear it’s ugly head?
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 12:33 PM
i think it’s disgusting that edwards will not sacrifice this doomed ego trip of a campaign to be by his wife’s side.
truly a low person and a false family man.
jummy on March 22, 2007 at 12:34 PM
Just did some research on secondary or metastatic bone cancer, and there is some good news for the Edwards family. If the cancer is caught early, as this one was, then it’s very treatable - a five-year survival rate of 90%.
Slublog on March 22, 2007 at 12:34 PM
There is a day for all battles,
And IRT the Coulter posts,
Today is not that day.
Get Well, Mrs. Edwards.
Ringmaster on March 22, 2007 at 12:35 PM
I was responding to his options and making a valid point about the disgraceful actions of some conservatives by carrying the libs PC water.
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 12:36 PM
John shouldn’t have even joked about how Elizabeth cracked her rib.
Please tell me you’re archiving the entire presser, AP. I don’t have the equipment to do so.
steveegg on March 22, 2007 at 12:36 PM
: )
Edwards:
“We, my wife and I, had a private conversation and her concern was ME, ahem… I mean the Kids first, then ME - but definitely ME. And she ….”
ar_basin on March 22, 2007 at 12:37 PM
Good news, Slu.
steveegg on March 22, 2007 at 12:37 PM
I wish his wife well, really. I watched my mother suffer through breast cancer treatments and would hate to see her cancer return, especially if the cancer return untreatable.
But I won’t ascribe heroism to Edwards, especially as he’s announced he won’t put his campaign on hold.
Esthier on March 22, 2007 at 12:37 PM
I have my own health to deal with and wish only my persecutors anything like what I’ve got-my best for Mrs. Edwards.
tormod on March 22, 2007 at 12:37 PM
I wonder though: Will he still be a distant third with all the sympathy votes he will now receive?
Cancer is a horrible thing, and almost everyone has suffered the loss of a loved one from it.
I wish John Edwards the best. I can’t imagine anyone would be so callous by using cancer as a ploy to boost their poll numbers. I sincerely wish his wife a speedy recovery.
januarius on March 22, 2007 at 12:38 PM
jummy,
I know it seems that way, but for people who live for politics and are at the pinnacle of their career they would rather do that than anything else. Edwards said a very sweet thing. He said she was the unselfish woman he had ever known. She is just being unselfish. She knows how important this is to him and she doesn’t want to dwell on this illness. I can certainly see her wanting to continue.
She looks amazing for 57 too! I had no idea she was that age.
The Edwards are wrong on every issue important to America, but that doesn’t mean they are bad or insane. They love each other. That much seems to be true. Good luck to them both.
Rightwingsparkle on March 22, 2007 at 12:39 PM
Spare me the sanctimony.
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 12:40 PM
It’s both amusing and sad that you’d decide you’re qualified to judge who is conservative enough or not. Especially since your criteria appear to have nothing to do with actual conservative political ideals.
Just to clarify: as long as I publicly applaud those who use “faggot” in their speech - you won’t snidely call me a “semi-pseudo conservative?” Hopefully I’m misunderstanding.
I always thought it had something to do with limited government, decreased taxation, strong defense, constitutional freedoms, etc. Oh, well.
And this relates to Elizabeth Edwards how?
Professor Blather on March 22, 2007 at 12:40 PM
Januarius - There won’t be “sympathy” votes. We’re still 10 months from the first caucus.
steveegg on March 22, 2007 at 12:41 PM
Good for her. Bone cancer is bad - and I’ve heard very painful - but it sounds like they found it early.
And I’m sure she convinced him not to drop out. She sounds like that kind of woman.
Tanya on March 22, 2007 at 12:41 PM
I agree with RWS - if campaigning gives Mrs. Edwards something to work toward and focus on other than her cancer, I think her treatment will go that much more smoothly.
Slublog on March 22, 2007 at 12:42 PM
I want my words struck from the record. His personal priorities are as screwed up as his national.
Still prayers for his wife, to live with such a man.
right2bright on March 22, 2007 at 12:43 PM
You’re right. I apologize for even responding with my last post. Plenty of places for that discussion.
Prayers to them both, indeed.
Professor Blather on March 22, 2007 at 12:43 PM
All my best to Mrs. Edwards and the Edwards family. Here’s hoping she gets this thing back under control and keeps it that way for many, many years to come.
That said, how hard did he hug her that he broke a rib?!
aero on March 22, 2007 at 12:44 PM
Lovely woman. I doubt he’ll be able to stay the course, this is a particularly vicious form of cancer. Hate to see anyone have to deal with this, but a mother of young children is particularly grim. Puts things into perspective though.
honora on March 22, 2007 at 12:45 PM
Get well and don’t get used by husband…
ar_basin on March 22, 2007 at 12:46 PM
Is this to mean that even if lucky, she’ll still die in about five years?
If I were her, I certainly wouldn’t want my last years alive to be spent campaigning or even as First Lady. Sure both are great accomplishments, but both are also full of petty arguments and mud-slinging.
But maybe she doesn’t share my opinion.
Esthier on March 22, 2007 at 12:47 PM
I was speaking in terms of “voting” to a pollster.
januarius on March 22, 2007 at 12:48 PM
No. The 5-year mark has historically been the mark at which one is considered cancer-free if it doesn’t come back.
steveegg on March 22, 2007 at 12:51 PM
Yes, you’re misunderstanding.
It has nothing to do with anyone expecting you to call someone a faggot. It has everything to do with carrying the libs PC water. Which in my opinion is exactly what semi-pseudo conservatives did when they focused on Ann’s word useage instead of the message behind it. I believe that they were flinching because they have been conditioned by the Libs PC agenda.
I never said it related to Elizabeth. It relates to the question of Edwards perhaps suspending his campaign and how it would survive said supension. It is my opinion that these semi-pseudo conservatives did a lot to further his campaign by attacking a fellow conservative. They seemed to be more interested in the appearence of rightousness than the effects that such rightousness has on the politics of the situation. My suggestion was that edwards doesn’t need to worry because we have “conservatives” who are more than willing to help his cause by bashing Ann again.
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 12:51 PM
Copy that. There will certainly be a surge of that, but polls are only good when they’re printed on absorbent paper.
steveegg on March 22, 2007 at 12:52 PM
We have a great family here so please don’t take this wrong…
I’m the class expert on ‘foot-in-mouth’…y’all have had to straighten me out plenty of times. This is about Elizabeth’s misfortune not John’s opportunities. We all have a dark side…..just something to keep in mind. That foot o mine tastes pretty nasty.
Limerick on March 22, 2007 at 12:56 PM
Regarding the “sympathy vote”: The sympathy is primarily for Elizabeth, not John. I think voters are more likely to send him home to his wife, where they probably think he belongs. In other words, the “sympathy vote” will work against him, I think. She’s saying she wants him to keep campaigning, but what woman really believes she wouldn’t really want her husband by her side while she fights something like this? And besides, I’m sure even his biggest supporters have to wonder how focused a candidate and/or president he would be under these circumstances. He did say that he will drop everything if she needs him. That’s as it should be, and I applaud him for making her and her health his priority (not enough to quit the campaign, but a priority nonetheless). But I assume it means he’d drop everything as president, too. Don’t know how that’s affect Dem voters.
aero on March 22, 2007 at 12:57 PM
Limerick, I thought being the class expert on “foot-in-mouth” was my job - I’ve stuck mine there so many times I’ve lost count ;-)
steveegg on March 22, 2007 at 12:59 PM
I’d agree only in the sense that campaigning helps her to keep a positive outlook. It’s been dis-proven that positive mental outlook cures cancer. The positive mental outlook makes it possible for you to follow doctors orders and take care of yourself.
The down side is the phyiscal stress a campaign will have. If she does pace herself it should be ok. But how does she react when the inevitble self-destruction of his campaign happens? Do we all hope he can become president so she can have less stress? Do we rail against him knowing that every silky pony (and even more vile) remarks may have a detrimental effect on her?
Going to lunch. I be back to see what new PC attacks have been leveled.
csdeven on March 22, 2007 at 1:03 PM
All the best to Senator Edwards, his wife and his family. I’m no fan of Edwards, but you never wish cancer on anyone.
amerpundit on March 22, 2007 at 1:03 PM
Bone cancer is very painful. Best wishes to Elizabeth from myself and The Autopsy. You’ve beat cancer once before, let’s beat it once again.
Nethicus on March 22, 2007 at 1:09 PM
I think a positive mental attitude can sometimes be an “x factor” of sorts that allows someone to heal more quickly from certain medical conditions. It won’t cure her cancer, but it can assist in her recovery from the treatments she’ll undergo.
Hard to say how the physical stress of the campaign will affect her. I’m sure she and her doctor have talked about it - Mrs. Edwards is going to have to be careful.
Slublog on March 22, 2007 at 1:13 PM
Best wishes and prayers to Mr. Edwards and his family. I’m meeting with the guy who set-up his house for comm for the campaign (he is the tech director at my church) and let him know the news, we’ll say a prayer for him.
rattrap47 on March 22, 2007 at 1:14 PM
May God bless them. I pray for Mrs. Edwards the strength to fight and the family the strength to endure.
SCGOPgirl on March 22, 2007 at 1:15 PM
Like many others here, while I wouldn’t want Mr. Edwards even close to the Presidency, I sincerely wish Mrs. Edwards the best.
There are very few people I would wish a death by cancer on - heck, almost none I’d even wish a brush with cancer on.
KCSteve on March 22, 2007 at 1:18 PM
Stage 4 metastasized bone cancer is quite lethal. Most patients, from what I’ve been able to find, only live around an average of 10 years.
Best of luck to the Edwards’, it’s always helpful to have a hopeful, positive outlook.
Enoxo on March 22, 2007 at 1:19 PM
This is not a secondary cancer. It is metastatic cancer — *stage 4* breast cancer — now that it has protruded into another organ or system. (Yes, the bones of the ribs count). That indicates five year survivability of about 20%, even with an aggressive program of chemo and radiation. For stage 4, this number has not moved appreciably for several years.
Indeed a tragedy for the Edwards family.
However, I’m sorry to have to ask this. But what kind of a man campaigns for the Presidency while his wife is undergoing chemotherapy and radiation, competing for an office that will consume the remaining expected years of his wife’s life?
Anil Petra on March 22, 2007 at 1:19 PM
Is it stage four? My understanding is that if a metastatic cancer is caught quickly enough, the survival rate is higher, because the “new” cancer has not progressed as far as the original cancer. Either way, the Edwards family is going to need some prayer over the next few years.
Slublog on March 22, 2007 at 1:26 PM
Recap:
Edwards hugs his wife so hard he cracks her rib. Cracked rib leads to chest film. Chest film leads to finding of metastatic cancer on the other side. Selfless wife wants John to plow forward for the good of the country.
Hillary has to be changing her Depends about now. Do not misundersestimate this guy. He will be the Dem nominee for pres.
Valiant on March 22, 2007 at 1:26 PM
Not that he will ever get close to the Oval Office, but would the country be best served by a President that would be rightly distracted by the terminal illness of the First Lady?
Mallard T. Drake on March 22, 2007 at 1:32 PM
Uh, maybe this thread isn’t the best thread to re-hash the Ann Coulter debate? The most important thing is the health of Elizabeth Edwards; everything else is secondary.
dalewalt on March 22, 2007 at 1:37 PM
Again, it’s swell that you’re the arbiter of who is conservative and who is not, and that it apparently has nothing to do with conservative values. But since it’s - to quote you - not related to Elizabeth, I’ll pass on the discussion. There are more important things. If that makes me PC (snort) or a “pseudo” whatever, I’ll somehow manage to get through the day.
Is that really what happened? I hadn’t heard.
Hell, give them credit: nice to see a political couple who apparently actually still like each other.
Professor Blather on March 22, 2007 at 1:37 PM
My wife had a scare five years ago, and had her thyroid removed as a result.
As I sat in the waiting room during her surgery, I wondered what we would do if it turned out to be malignant. I loved my wife literally from the first moment I saw her, and couldn’t fathom losing her. The tumor was benign. We were lucky.
I applaud the courage of Elizabeth Edwards in wanting to push through this cancer, incurable as it is. It takes a lot of guts, and a lot of heart. My respect for her as a person has increased. I’ve prayed for her already, and will pray for her again before the day is over.
Of John Edwards, I can manage little more than disgust.
Women are tougher than men, and as Elizabeth loves him, she wants him to push on with his campaign and their life together as if nothing was wrong. She wants the continuity, and what she thinks is best for him. And who knows? Maybe it is what’s best for him.
But I don’t think it is best for her. Political campaigns are notoriously grueling, as both of them should well know. I do not see how a campign can have any positive effects on her health. John Edwards should know this.
He should put his wife and children ahead of a dark horse campaign. We have so little time on this planet to be with the ones we love, and it appears that he intends to spend the next year (perhaps less) of that time courting everyone but the one he should care about the most.
I don’t know what John Edwards considers “family values,” but they apparently aren’t any kind I would recognize.
Bob Owens on March 22, 2007 at 1:37 PM
Unless you’re a leftard, and wish Dick Cheney dead, W, etc. Notice how many well wishers there are, that are genuinely interested in her recovery?
Compare and contrast that with the leftard blogs, and the acidic bile they spew at anyone to the right of Ted Kennedy.
What a pitiful, miserable, hateful, little life they have to suffer through. You reap what you sow…
