Fmr. Sen. John Edwards admits to having affair in 2006

[Alex]

I actually don't much care about the affairs themselves. Like I've said, it is more that the circumstances of them call into question their current decision making priorities.

McCain's affair happened while he was a private citizen (and not long after spending five years in a prisoner of war camp). Not good, but I completely don't care (and his ex-wife is actually somewhat supportive of him and they remain on good terms). If he is now, while running for president cheating on Cindy McCain then I'll care in that way.

John Edwards private citizen, I don't give a damn who he's doing. John Edwards presidential aspirant I do care to the degree that it shows such poor judgment in relation to the goal sought.
