Former presidential candidate John Edwards abandoned his long denial that he had fathered a child during an affair with a campaign aide and admitted today that he is the father of the almost 2-year-old girl.


"I am Quinn's father," Edwards said in the bombshell statement this morning. "I will do everything in my power to provide her with the love and support she deserves.


The former senator and presidential hopeful had an affair with campaign cinematographer Rielle Hunter, 42, and she later give birth to Frances Quinn.

I can't recall if they were the first to report the Clinton affair either. Funny story about the Enquirer:

((We dodged a big one, as a country, when he was defeated.))

Yes we did. I am in independent voter...but am mostly conservative. I lived in NC when Edwards was senator. It was no secret that he was a huge sleaze ball. Total pond scum.

I was so mad at John Kerry for picking Edwards. It was as if he was trying to make for his own lack of "good looks" and charm....so he picked Edwards as his running mate. Ugh!

That cost Kerry my vote. I just couldn't have a sleazy, scummy, snake-in-the-grass trial lawyer being a heart beat away from being leader of the free world.

I don't recall the Clinton affair being exposed by the NE. But they did break the Jesse Jackson scandal of his extramarital affair and out of wedlock child.

I'm soooo glad I'm not the only one who has read the Enquirer....lol. Did you feel as if you had to run home and take a shower after buying one because you felt "dirty"??

How big of him to publicly acknowledge his offspring after two years.


What a piece of work this "father" is.
