Edwards admits to fathering Rielle Hunter's child

Ugh. Just depressing. We all pretty much knew this was the case, and his lying about it was undignified (if understandable). I guess it's better to finally be acknowledging it, though that is at least partly due to a new "tell all" book coming out. What an ass. And I really feel for his wife - how humiliating. The report I heard on CNN said that the Edwards are separated, no surprise. The report also said that, when Edwards came onto the national politicial scene, everyone said he was Clinton without the sexual baggage. That turned out to be less than completely accurate. Bleh.
