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.

"Men are so mis-understood....:)"
Poor things..... "My wife doesn't understand me."

It seems like the women are falling over themselves to reveal their affairs with Tiger Woods.


Those are the women who are seeking power & fame & feel that they have to get it through a famous or powerful man.

For me, the ick factor in this was her claim that homosexuality was worse than sexual abuse of children:

"There can be no viler act, apart from homosexuality and sodomy, than sexually abusing innocent children."

She made that claim in the House of Commons in front of Policing and Justice Minister Paul Goggins and a committee of UK MPs during a debate on the assessment and management of sex offenders.

So there is a part of me that wonders when she started the sexual relationship with him.

Also, she solicited a loan for him, and without registering it with the authorities.

It's almost as if they want to be caught. I'll bet they'll come out with some "Syndrome" of powerful men who have affairs and can't help themselves. (eye roll!)
