John Edwards, John Edwards, John who cares !

John Edwards, John Edwards, .... on every news channel every fifteen minutes. Really who cares about this? John Edwards had an affair, how does this make him more news worthy then current foreign affairs? The politician from Seneca South Carolina, 10 minutes from my house, was never someone I looked up to nor was I surprised to hear he had an affair. Very few politicians today would surprise me to hear similar news. I respect his wife for how she has handled the situation, but I don't think the media hounding the subject day in and day out is helping her to deal with the situation. John Edwards is paying for his mistake, but its a personal issue between him and his wife. He has apologized and admitted it so for my sake drop the John Edwards gossip. If there where no other important issues in the world today then I maybe could understand all the hype around this "news."



In case I am the only one who noticed between the John Edwards affair segments on the news, Russia invaded Georgia a few days ago and is continuing what seems to be a takeover bid of the country.

I have never understood the media's love affair with John Edwards. He wasn't much of a senator for our state and evidently not much of a husband either.
Since his record didn't expose him for the shallow senator he was, perhaps his actions outside of politic will ave us from any more undeserved hype.

I agree with you, the John Edwards media hysteria has finally died down lets keep him "retired" from politics.
