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.
