Poor baby

Hard to feel sorry for John Edwards, who's facing indictment for allegedly using campaign money to pay off Rielle Hunter.  He's such a tool, and you want him to be punished on general principle.  However, this charge does feel a little trumped up, and sort of kicking him while he's already down - what's the point?

Though here is a refreshing second opinion, saying that the money elicits more outrage than the sexual misconduct, not just in this case, but Strass-Kahn also:  "Put your hands where you like — but keep them out of our pockets."
