Woman who had affair with John Edwards has a wild past
South Florida Sun - Sentinel ^ | 8-11-08 | Mike Clary

Rielle Hunter, the woman at the heart of the John Edwards scandal, was born in Fort Lauderdale and attended college in Tampa. But it was from the cocaine-fueled New York City social scene of the 1980s that she emerged as the literary model for the ultimate party girl.

Yes, and as narcissistic as he is he will continue to feel like he is entitled.

Well, Johnny boy is a Dhim (or is that Dim?) and we all know that the Dims don’t, can’t possibly lie.

I’m still not even sure that the Breck boy “had sexual relations with THAT woman”.

Just kidding, couldn’t help myself.

5 hours or 5 minutes with pony boy would qualify as a dirty “quickie” not to mention the KEEP THIS UNDER THE RADAR hush money that was probably arranged.

Word has it he was quite flushed with fear when he was hiding out in that Hotel bathroom!

Me thinks his aspirations of Attorney General might have postponed. We will see.

I can’t imagine Mrs. Edwards having to deal with cancer-deal with the thought of not being with your children and then dealing with this asshole husband who humiliates the whole family this way with this dingaling woman.Let’s see I’m dying and now I have to worry about my “husband” marrying a dingbat like this and my children will be raised by her? Oh and now they have a kid together so will my kids be her “step”kids and treated differently! John Edwards should be horse whipped-I hope paternity is established-you know it’s his and that Mrs. Edwards puts all the money in trusts for her kids that he and his bimbo girlfriend can’t touch! What a horrible event for her to deal with-not to meention that stress can cause an illness to get worse.

“Why would a man exchange this for a soiled reputation, and failed political career and a skank like Hunter?”

Because he is an immoral loon.

"He has the power to change the world," he quoted her as saying.

Looks like she was putting out to edwards and young at about the same time. ( what a girl)

I wonder if they ever tried the kennedy/dodd waitress sandwich position.

spy camera’ photos- they look like somoene in the room

Maybe the bimbo got herself a bigger payday?

That seems likely. Everybody does it, it seems.

Maybe Edwards paid Young to “own up” to the Edwards baby.

and they KNOW there is a lifetime income in it and the possibility of much more than that through the courts. Ghetto girls have babies for a couple hundred a month or just for the WIC and rent subsidies that end when the babies are 21. Classier merchant girls can get maybe $15k a month for life and can get that increased from time to time and single large payments for things that come up.

Sluts-that is what we call them- but I don't see where Spitzer or Edwards are getting plaudits for their gentlemanly behaviour. Both will be the subjects of jokes and satire for years. I think you are seeing the references to men of quality and power throwing away careers and reputations for low life women. Well, that is a pretty good description of the situation. These men generally do not patronize multimillionaire prostitutes and independently wealthy party girls and their reps do take a tremendous hit. Spitzer will never hold any office again and will never be held in respect by people not on the Really Weird Left again. The men involved have resources that will keep them living well anđ the women have only what they could extort from those men so they don't generally (not always, anyway) live out their lives in penthouses in Monaco.

Age happens to us all. I was a pretty young thing once. I’m glad my husband hasn’t kicked me to the curb because I’m over 50.

One thing I have to say is that her past was documented before she ever knew who John Edwards was. In fact, there was a character in a book based on her some 20 years ago because of her party-girl lifestyle.

I’d never defend Edwards, but if I were him I’d be demanding a paternity test. He’d be an idiot to assume that’s his kid.

Wow. I can’t believe a woman can chunk up like that. Gawd! She couldn’t squeeze in a salad here and there?

Men chunk up too, in case you haven’t noticed.

Yeah, but men and women are different.
Men are more visual.
