...DEVELOPING...

NATIONAL ENQUIRER WORLD EXCLUSIVE: JOHN EDWARDS LOVE CHILD SCANDAL!

The woman linked to Presidential candidate John Edwards in a cheating scandal is more than six months pregnant and telling a close confidante that Edwards is the father of her unborn child, The NATIONAL ENQUIRER has learned exclusively.

The NATIONAL ENQUIRER's political bombshell comes just weeks after Edwards emphatically denied having an affair with Rielle Hunter, who formerly worked on his campaign.

But The ENQUIRER has now confirmed not only that Rielle is pregnant, but she is also living in Chapel Hill, N.C. in a gated community, just a few streets away from Andrew Young, who has been a key official in Edwards' campaign.

Young has been in charge of looking after Hunter, according to sources, and she has been careful to stay out of sight during Edwards' campaign. A former Director of Operations for Edwards' campaign, Young's last official position with the campaign was North Carolina Finance Director.

He left that job about a month ago — nearly the same time Rielle relocated from the New Jersey area to Chapel Hill.

In a bizarre twist, Young, a 41-year-old married man with young children, now claims HE is the father of Reille's baby.

But others are skeptical about his claim and talk of a political cover up is heating up.

Reille, when contacted in person by the NATIONAL ENQUIRER, denied that she was Reille Hunter. Later, she hired a lawyer and issued a statement, saying that Young is the father.

But a source close to the 43-year-old divorcee says Rielle has told a far different story privately.

"Rielle told me she had a secret affair with Edwards. When she found out that she was pregnant she said he was the father."

Rielle loves Edwards and will do anything to protect him, the source said.

The NATIONAL ENQUIRER has obtained exclusive photos of a visibly pregnant Rielle and learned from close sources that she has been in phone contact with Edwards. That information has not been denied by anyone.

"Rielle told me while Andrew Young is a friend, she's not romantically involved with him," says the source close to Rielle.

MORE DETAILS WILL BE POSTED HERE LATER AND ARE IN THE NEXT EDITION OF THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER!

If I could write his speeches.....

“Like I say, there are two Americas...

my wife and kids lives in the first America,

my secret lover and love child live in the second America.”

The Enquirer was not ready to run with this. Drudge found the cover and I found the hidden link (which is now gone).

Hmmm ... I wonder who told the Inquirer to pull the story off-line. Perhaps someone who figured out that too many Edwards votes would go elsewhere.

I’m no Edwards fan and as a Born-again Christian, I do NOT condone adultery. But, don’t rush to judgment on this. It sounds like you’ve already convicted him. This could very well be a scheme of the Clinton Campaign. They will stop at nothing to get back in the White House.

Ahhh. The Clinton smear machine trying to sleaze another one out of the race.

Comeon now, we all know that the only person Breck Girl loves is himself.

Bad break for Silky Pony. Just what are the odds of getting a 43-year-old woman pregnant, I asked myself?

http://www.babycenter.ca/preconception/activelytrying/forties/

There's a big difference in egg viability between the early 40s and the mid to late 40s. "There's a steep drop in fertility in the 40s," says Julia Johnson, a professor of obstetrics and gynaecology. "Your odds of getting pregnant at 41 are much better than they are at 43."

A recent study in the medical journal Fertility and Sterility confirms her point. Researchers found that 40-year-old women treated for infertility had a 25 per cent chance of achieving pregnancy using their own eggs. By age 43 that number dropped to 10 per cent, and by 44 it had plummeted still further to 1.6 per cent. Among women who did get pregnant, the miscarriage rate was 24 per cent for 40-year-olds, 38 per cent for 43-year-olds, and 54 per cent for 44-year-olds.

Fertility expert James Goldfarb says that, in his 30 years on the job, he has never seen a woman get pregnant with her own eggs after age 46. "It's like buying a lottery ticket," he says. "Yes, someone wins every once in a while, but you shouldn't bank on it." (Note: if you don't want to get pregnant, you shouldn't take this to mean that you can stop using contraception at 46. Instead you should wait until you are sure that you have stopped ovulating.)

What a situation this woman is in. I can only speculate what's going on inside her mind. She has to know that this is likely her last chance to ever have a child. Yes, Silky's married right now, but it has to have occurred to her that he's going to become available ... yes it's a horrible thought, but you know she has to have thought it.

Of course Hillary's operatives put this in the Enquirer. No other scenario is remotely plausible. Will this knock Silky Pony out of the horse race? Not necessarily. Hillary may have to go to ballistic attacks on Barack; the two of them could destroy each other and leave Silky the only pony still upright on the track.

Mrs. Edwards has known for years that her husband supports partial/post-birth abortion of innocent children. That is, of course, far more evil than adultery. She certainly has no right to be surprised at anything he does.

Now, we don’t know if this is true or not.

What we do know is that the National Enquirer is a tool of the Clinton Slime Machine, owned and lawyered by one David Kendall, Bill Clinton’s personal attorney.

This has Hillary and her HINO’s footprints all over it.

would be better if Bubba was the daddy..Edwards is a joke anyway....although I guess him having an affair while his wife was out getting cancer treatment and campaigning for him wont make him look much better.

Do they have new editors or something?

Nope. It's because the rest of lame stream media has sunk so low that tabloids now appear credible. In some cases, more reliable.

Here's the opening line from Silk Pony's presser today..

"I did NOT have sex with that woman...Ms. Rielle..."

Still think this is Clinton's handiwork?
