What a sleeze bag to do that to your wife when she has cancer, or any other time for that matter.

Who cares, no one should really care if he did or he didn't have a affair. What does his political stance on a certain subject have to do if he cheated on his wife. Check his record, the man has done nothing but do good thru his policies. So i don't care if he cheated.

You have to be pretty cold and ruthless to cheat on your wife when she's got cancer. I don't think the average American would want someone like that for President. You know he was wanting her to hurry up and die.

And, I came down just as hard on Newt Gingrich for his affair. I'm a big Madonna fan, but I hope her husband takes every dime she's got after what she's done.

Yeah, sounds like something we heard before "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" Don't they get it? Sooner or later their gonna get busted. His career may be doomed I'm sure the VP position is not in question.

The bigger question is how his wife allowed, and stayed? Unbelievable! And, I do agree with you.

OK.... so 'ol John Edwards was getting some on the side. You wanna know why this won't totally destroy him? Because he's a Democrat. Republicans have some kinda morality stick up their rumps that when somebody in their party is trying to fondle teenage boys, or toe-tapping in hopes of dropping a load in a bathroom stall in another male's orfice; the party has to put them in exile... never to be seen by a TV camera again. As for heterosexual infadelity for Democrats, that's nothing. Look at Bill Clinton.

So we should ask those running for high office if they've ever masterbated or had extra-marital, or pre-marital sex. That would have a lot to do with one's character, right?

So, I assume you won't be voting for McCain, then? After all, he cheated on his wife and left her after she had been debilitated in an auto accident. He went after the young thing 17 years his junior. Married her a month after his divorce was final. So, I agree with you.. a man like that should NOT be president.

DNA will determine the paternity of the child regardless of what Mr. Edwards said. I just wonder why he chose to tell the truth about it now, 2 years or so later? Why did he not just tell the truth about it then---that way he would have have been a cheater, but not a liar too.

Affairs happen. It doesn't make them right, but they happen. Men, and women are infalliable. Affairs are hurtful and the collateral damage caused by them many times is of epic proportions. But many times the relationship can be saved, and people can be forgiven.
