This woman sounds like a bonafide nut job! How Edwards was ever attracted to her in the first place, I'll never know! Both of them are egocentric idiots.

I don't reply or actually participate in any of this non sense BUT the bottom line is cheating is cheating and the fact that il's all so media oriented is discusting!!! The fact that the woman knew that he was married??? that just sounds like publicity to me and the fact that he denies it? it's just the american way! Bottom line cheats, extra marital affairsa etc have always exsisted the difference is that every where in the world everyone has owned up to it except for us perfect americans. Some idiot mentioned if BUSH would of had a mistress obviously no one would even approach such and idiot!!!
Why are we so fascinated by this story of Edwards and Hunter's affair? Edwards had a lapse in judgment. He's not the first and he won't be the last to make just a grievous mistake. Yes, he was on the soapbox about morality and he led us to believe tha he was a devpted husband and father, but at the end of the day, he is just a human being. This affair is really none of our business. There are other more important things for us to be focusing on besides Mr. Edward's lack of good judgment.
Yes, Edwards is human but some "mistakes" have greater consequences. The breaking of trust in a marriage through an act of a sexual affair may not be "repairable"
To err is human.....to forgive is divine
Amen! But many of us have this need to point our finger at someone else instead of looking at our own morality. And the media loves this. Their "news" feeds the addiction of gossip lovers. Let's have some real news. Look around and see the good happening in our country and world. Unfortunately, that would be too boring..
Looks like we dodged another bullet. Can you imagine if Edwards was the nominee and this came out? How did he possibly think he could get away with this considering all the scrutinany politicians are under concerning their sex lives. Maybe he thought he could get away with it because....hes gotten away with it before. As old fashioned a comment as this may be, I still believe that a candidate that will lie and cheat on his wife will lie and cheat in his political responsibilities. His focus is on self satisfaction, not on his family or country.
Wow! What a ground breaking story by a dedicated journalist. Tremendous! This will win a Peadody for sure....WHAT A JOKE!
The mainstream media, from the news organizations to the entertainment tabloids and witless TV magazine shows, all are pathetic and continually perform disservice to this country. In this instance, it is nobody's business what John Edwards does in his bedroom or who he does it with. That's between him and his wife, family, its personal. I do not care who he sleeps with. I still believe he is better qualified than Obama for President. Many many of our greatest leaders, starting with George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, had their affairs... All that matters is how they do their job, not who they are sleeping with.
The only ones who can sleep around are single people, the smart category. We can do it like cats do. Nobody says anything. When Rielle combs her hair she's kind of cute though. John has a brunette at home. He wanted a dizzy blonde. She might have hypnotised him. But why did he go public with his trash since she is not looking for a paternity test?
Anyone knows???
Perhaps it is time for a Black man to occupy the White House! I'm so sick of fairly attractive white women getting their claim to fame for anti-social behavior, like having children with married politicians and blowing the Prez in the oval office. As embarassing as it is in the short term, these... for lack of a nicer word, women are always able to turn their wrongs into a money-making venture b/c some dumb TV or magazine executive thinks she's a "story." The story is Rielle is an interloper in Elizabeth Edwards' marriage!!! How dare the concubine put down the honorable, intelligent and accomplished wife of this cheating numb-skull!
I'm going to apologize in advance for this...............its because women are the smarter of the two sexes! LOL
politics is a dirty business. nobody is safe. nothing remain secrect
And didnt he endorse Obama??? Hmm what does that say about Obama and his party and their jusge of character???
And only God-fearing, faithful Republican saints are endorsing McCain? Oh, wait, didn't McCain cheat on his wife?
At the time when Senators Clinton and Edwards were both candidates, Mrs Edwards distastefully remarked that she was a happier person than Hill. I thought that was a stupid thing to say. But now it looks as if that dumb remark has come to bite her in her booty. I wish her well though.
I don't see where your point has any significance, in fact I would call it immature thinking.......the "I told you so" should go out by the time you are 21 years old
Please lets not bring Obama into this. We were all deceived by Edwards denial of an affair. That's not to say that I believe that he is less than brilliant in his profession. This just means that he has shown us all that he is human. Bill Clinton had an affair, but look at what he did for the country. These acts are immorale and I will not try to justify them, but we have to move forward and get back the campaign to elect Barack Obama. Maybe if Bush would have an affair we would we be in a better situation.
Come to think of it, maybe we ought to be grateful that the little whore showed John Edwards up for what he really is. I just feel really badly for Elizabeth. What kind of thing is this to pull on someone who is going through all the suffering she is right now. Like, she really needed this!
Hasn't anyone learned yet...ALL politicians are liars and cheats, no matter how good their political advisors make them look!
ok so she IS a whore. Flirting and seeking married men....
Didn't I say it the first time? A cheap two-bit home-wrecking whore. And cheating on God to boot! She will get what's coming to her eventually.
What do you mean she cheats on God too?
Have you ever noticed, or is it just me...that all those that engage in unbelievable affairs of the heart, with either men or women...are men? And now we find that the squeaky-clean John Edwards is the latest in them montage of figures who for whatever reason it is, find it in themselves to dishonor their spouse, their friends and most importantly, themselves. How sad...
I think that this lady is psychotic and needs to be evaluated and probably have a restraining order put on her. Also what kind of man has an affair with a crackpot like this? Someone that we want as a presidential candidate or running mate? That is what you get with Democrats I guess....
And what you get with Republicans is a man who comes home after the war and learns his wife has been in a terrible accident and had life-saving surgery which left her several inches shorter and far less attractive than when he married her. He then divorces her and within a month, marries "up." The man I described is John McCain - personally, I don't see much difference between the two men and political association has nothing to do with life choices.
I realize the truth to this now so, I will have to concede on this as well.......
You are right, the more I find out and hear about Edward's encounter with Hunter and the kind of person she is......well, I have lost respect for Edward's judgment altogether.
With all that is going on in the world, why are we so fascinated by this story? John Edwards is a human being; a man with thoughts and feelings and failings. So what! This affair with Rielle Hunter is over and it's really none of our business!

First, I would like to say that I think Elizabeth Edwards is the camp in all of this. She is having to deal with an illness and now a husband who has cheated and not only that possibly has fathered a baby. Next, to the woman who said that Elizabeth had bad vives. She felt that way because she knew she was doing wrong and wanted it to be on Elizabeth. I am so upset that she actually met Elizabeth Edwards. I know Mrs. Edwards has that scene in her mind on a daily bases. I know I do becuase it has happened to me and we are not a famous family. I think Mr. and Mrs. Edwards need to pray to God if they want their marriage to work and the press and the public should stay out of it. Lastly, Rielle only spoke to the reported hoping that the word about her and Edward would get out. I think she used the reporter and was not actually his friend.
I don't want to minimize or downplay your sorrow in any way, but just as an encourgement you can get to a place in life where the pain of such an incident doesn't have the power to hurt anymore.
I hope that you reach that place soon.......be happy :~)
