National Enquirer
The ENQUIRER has learned Elizabeth dropped the divorce bombshell after learning a former campaign aide is claiming Rielle Hunter, the mother of Edwards’ love child, isn’t the only woman he seduced on the campaign trail!
Furious at his betrayals, Elizabeth – still battling Stage 4 breast cancer – has vowed to destroy her husband of 32 years by disclosing everything she knows about his political career in divorce court, insiders say.

Her furniture store in Chapel Hill, NC must be floundering.

popcorn!

I’m sick of all these people. I feel for the child stuck in the middle of this mess.
cubachi on October 2, 2009 at 12:40 PM
Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy.
But damn if my sympathy meter isn’t pegged for her, too. Sorry. She did everything she could to foist this a$$hole on us and her situation doesn’t excuse it.

Trying to care…..
Meh.

Who says that interesting news never drops before 4PM on Friday?
teke184 on October 2, 2009 at 12:40 PM
These two are just shameless. Still, if she’s vowing to destroy him further politically (if that’s possible) I support her. The kids are already destined to years of therapy, what’s a few more sessions at this point?
Monica on October 2, 2009 at 12:41 PM
MSM KNOWINGLY protected this guy WHILE he had a chance at the nomination. Crooks.
marklmail on October 2, 2009 at 12:41 PM
Too late.
ElectricPhase on October 2, 2009 at 12:42 PM
this couple is beyond nuts and beyond therapy. I feel sorry for the kids.
nyx on October 2, 2009 at 12:42 PM
Why couldn’t the idiot libs nominate this guy?

God hath no fury like a woman scorned.
I hate seeing families dissolve for the world to watch, but I guess that’s where we are today. Any politician dumb enough to have an affair in this day and age should expect this to happen.

Time to invest in more popcorn stock.

BEST DAY EVER!

If he had won Iowa, he may be President right now
jp on October 2, 2009 at 12:47 PM
This pretty much assures his ascendancy to higher levels in the democratic party.
jake-the-goose on October 2, 2009 at 12:48 PM
Hopefully she has some juicy tales about Algore too.
HondaV65 on October 2, 2009 at 12:49 PM
Sorry- no sympathy for anyone but the kids. Mrs. Edwards has known what a sleaze her husband was for years, and she was fine with it until it made HER look bad. She had NO problem foisting her pretty boy off on the American people.
hee-hee. Rough week for the Dem’s.
anniekc on October 2, 2009 at 12:49 PM
It seems that God has a sense of humor.

This is like the cherry on top of my Dhimmicrat Failure Friday Sundae!
Mmmmm mmmmm mmmmm!

I’m sure he can still go work in his Dad’s mill when Elizabeth takes all his money.

When we practice to deceive, oh, what a tangled web we weave.

Welcome to the other America, Silky.

He’s a jerk, but if she does this, she is No Better.
Pathetic people these two are. Those poor children.
bridgetown on October 2, 2009 at 12:55 PM
and we know he likes Wendy’s so the threeconomics should help him out a lot.
brandozilla on October 2, 2009 at 12:55 PM
How’s that political comeback going, silky?
AUINSC on October 2, 2009 at 12:56 PM
What’s the opposite of a deathbed confession?
Tough to decide whether to feel sorry for Elizabeth. This is certainly a horrible way to go to her death, being dragged through the tabloids and made a national laughingstock. On the other hand, she married John Edwards.
rockmom on October 2, 2009 at 12:58 PM
Reminds me of a great punchline: “…with all this shit around…there must be a pony in here somewhere!”

uglyuglier.conservative pilgrim on October 2, 2009 at 1:02 PM
“She knows all his dirty little political secrets,” but kept them from the voters. Now that he’s betrayed her, she’ll share.
If true, then no matter how much sympathy we may feel for someone dying of cancer and betrayed by her husband, she was not exactly a hero and paragon of virtue.
Contrary to the hard sell by the media.
tom on October 2, 2009 at 1:08 PM
All the children get my sympathy, including Andrew Young’s kids. But all the adults in this mess are complicit.
juliesa on October 2, 2009 at 1:09 PM
I guess we won’t be seeing her alter-ego leaving any more blog comments praising Silky.
JammieWearingFool on October 2, 2009 at 1:12 PM
Thread Winner!
HawaiiLwyr on October 2, 2009 at 1:16 PM
Go for it Elizabeth. At least when you bankrupt him you will ensure your children will have an inheritance when you pass.
meci on October 2, 2009 at 1:17 PM
Oh My! All this juicy news today, It’s AWESOME! I hope Elizabeth rape-rapes Silky for everything he’s got.
silenced majority on October 2, 2009 at 1:20 PM
This surprises her?
Cue Claude Rains!

They are going to split the two Americas in the divorce.
pedestrian on October 2, 2009 at 1:21 PM
First woman president having his ‘nads removed.
Attila (Pillage Idiot) on October 2, 2009 at 1:21 PM
I can’t believe John Kerry was stupid enough to pick Edwards as his running mate. Then again, it was John Kerry.
Percy_Peabody on October 2, 2009 at 1:28 PM
She gets half of his half of America?
mankai on October 2, 2009 at 1:30 PM
Look for the new TLC show, “John and Liz plus Eight Baby Mamas”

That’s it, I’m buying a lottery ticket!

O yeah, well Levi Johnson says that Sarah and Todd Palin argue. So take that

In what way is this behavior different from how the MSM have treated the current and previous Democrat occupants of the White House?
BobOfTexas on October 2, 2009 at 2:06 PM
But he’s sure he can the IOC to award Raleigh the Olympics in 2020.
mankai on October 2, 2009 at 2:31 PM
Phsaw…what could she have to say – Edwards is a Democrat, there couldn’t possibly be any dirty secrets in his closet.
gwelf on October 2, 2009 at 2:34 PM
Who gets the hairspray?
kingsjester on October 2, 2009 at 2:59 PM
John Edwards isn’t perfect, but I still like the guy. He could have been the next JFK. I hope that someday he’s able to get his career back on track.
mr_B on October 2, 2009 at 3:06 PM
too bad Kennedy could have held on for a couple more weeks and made this a trifecta.
Alden Pyle on October 2, 2009 at 3:07 PM
Dude, whatever you’re smoking, I bet Barrack Obama could used some right about now.
austinnelly on October 2, 2009 at 3:16 PM
His career as an “ambulance chaser” trial lawyer???
Edwards is the scum of the earth and you can believe nothing he says. He cheated on his sick wife, lied profusely about his “affair” even after the baby was born! How anyone would like this jerk is beyond me…
TBenton on October 2, 2009 at 4:27 PM
beyond parody.
