    Re: Who Should Be Obama’s VP?

    According to reports, Edwards has admitted to repeatedly lying during his Presidential campaign about the affair and to his cancer stricken wife. Edwards' wife Elizabeth announced in March that her breast cancer had re-emerged after going into remission following a 2004 diagnosis.

    Let's do a new HT poll - "is he disgusting or not"?
    Now run along and play, but don’t get into trouble.

      IMHO, this officially ends any consideration the Obama campaign was giving Edwards for VP. It may have also severely damaged any hope of an attorney general appointment (which Edwards was reported to have been pursuing).

      We can’t be so fixated on our desire to preserve the rights of ordinary Americans.

        Let's see if he'll still be getting $400 haircuts

        I hope this ends Edwards' political carreer.
        I was so sick of hearing his voice and BS, and now it's proven, it was all BS.

          Think Indiana Senator Evan Bayh and Virginia Senator Jim Webb should be considered.

            I never understood how Edwards' experience as an ambulance chaser gave him any chance of being a decent attorney general. Pre-scandal Edwards would have been lucky to get Secretary of Labor, but I think even that is way out of reach for him now.

              Meh. Didn't end Bill Clinton's ... when it should've.

              Besides, committing infidelity is a forgivable sin. In fact, I like the highest political servant in office to promote infidelities.

              Really, it's okay to cheat. It's liberating.

                  Be that as it may, this weekend Bob Woodruff decided to give John Edwards one last chance at redemption in an in-depth interview on Nightline. Woodruff grills Edwards on his affair with campaign videographer Rielle Hunter and the fallout that has resulted.

                    I'd encourage Obama to pick another local boy as his running mate:

                    Frank De Lima.

                    They'd be unbeatable.

                        Frank DeLima? Da Braddahs? You got to be kidding me.

                        I pick Joe Moore.

                          i've never understood our requirement that our president be as pure as driven snow. I figur i'm voting for/hiring him/her to do a certain job and if s/he gets it done without compromising certain parameters in pursuit of getting that job done. whether his/her family/friends suffer bcs of some personal wrong the person in that job does is not my concern.

                          the president is essentially CEO of the company that is the US. no other CEO potentially loses his/her job bcs s/he likes a little salad tossing, provided that professionally, s/he is getting the results we require.

                          mind you, i despise adultery. however, I would vastly prefer a president who, after balancing the nation's budget, watches oh, i dunno, old Japanese people porn in the oval office while dipping cuban cigars in cavernous places than someone who unnecessarily jeopardizes the american economy.

                            That was one the GOP's finest representatives of family values, Newt "Contract On America" Gingrich...who admitted to cheating on his second wife (of three) while leading the impeachment charge against President Clinton.

                              Edwards could have beaten The Idiot last go round. Dems chose Kerry instead. He still polls well among right voters.
                              Tim - have the latest revelations changed your opinion of Edwards in any fashion? (Not trying to "catch" you in anything here - honestly curious as to your take.)
