Actually, it has a surprisingly decent track record, at least for political scandal reporting.

Omg. Tell me you have not resorted to the Enquirer.... You're kidding, right? Right?????


This is either a sign that the Cons are seriously on the ropes, the impending Apocalypse, or that Scaeagles has developed a sense of humor. Really sick and twisted humor, which works for me.

WB, I did put a disclaimer on it, but knowing what Alex posted is true regarding their track record on such things, I thought it worthy to post.

"John Edwards's VP Ambition's Sad Last Days?"

Having an affair while your wife battles cancer does not qualify one to be first in line for the highest office in the land.

Second in line? (Cough, cough. Newt Gingrich.) No problem.

By the way, I should have said "surprisingly decent track record for a tabloid". It definitely has its misses but over the years it has had enough scoops that I wouldn't dismiss such things out of hand.

Though I am of the opinion that since Edwards is not in office and is not currently running for office that his affairs are not really a story of any public interest.

Mr. Edwards would you please prove you did not have an affair. Oh and while you are at it... When did you stop beating your wife?

Hamilton, Harding, Roosevelt, Kennedy, Clinton, etc... Hell it's almost a requirement for the top spot.

In this case I think it is less "Mr. Edwards would you please prove you did not have an affair" than "Mr. Edwards would you please explain why you just spent five hours in a hotel room with a woman you have previously claimed no close personal relationship with?" Unless the Enquirer is completely making things up, which is certainly within the realm of possibility.

However, regardless of whether the allegations are true or not, fair or not, it is a simple statement of expediency that the Obama campaign would probably prefer to not attach the drama to the campaign if they can avoid it.

All I'm saying is Obama isn't going to touch him now. He's out of the running. This is regardless of what one thinks about it. And by the way, Newt was as reprehensible. My dad was screwing around on my mom while she was dying of lupus, so I have zero tolerance for such things.

Although, being that I'm basically evil at heart, I sure wish Obama had selected Edwards and this happened a couple of weeks after that. That would have been very entertaining.:evil:

Hamilton?
