ABC Radio news just announced Sen. John Edwards will admit to the affair with Rielle Hunter in an interview with the network, but insists the child is not his.

We return you to your regularly-scheduled FReeping.

“...but insists the child’s not his.”

Ironically, turns out the father....Ann Coulter!

[cowtowney]

“Either he is still having an affair with her or he is lying about the paternity of this child- who does he think he is fooling?”

Exactly my point! So either he hasn’t thought that through to its logical conclusion (which is really stupid) or he is what? What’s the word?

I say that the Democrats should do what they always do - elevate him to a higher post and ensure he remains around.

Just like Congressman William Jefferson, Democrat-LA, who is totally supported by all the Dems in Congress.

Thank you. Good point. This has got to sting for them. Prayers.

Now he is just begging for this woman to demand a DNA test.

Just what I was thinking -- she must be mad as hell that he's implying she sleeps around. Unless, of course, there's some multi-million dollar settlement at work here.

Fox reporting that Edwards wife knew of the affair in 2006.

Not his? A threesome?

Ted Kennedy and Chris Dodd have been known to tag team...

I remember that. I actually thought it was his wife because Cate is a little heavy. She appears to be the right weight for a middle aged woman with 3 children.

lol. Imagine silky pony is paying her $15K/month just so they can do their hair together.

“...he did have an affair with 42-year old Rielle Hunter, but said that he did not inhale her.”

[King Hawk]

Hannity has Editor of the NE.

[Munz]

“Edwards met her at a New York city bar in 2006. His political action committee later paid her $114,000 to produce campaign website documentaries despite her lack of experience.”

Yet they crucified Spitzer?

[BunnySlippers]

I hope she asks for one.

He basically just called her a “tramp” in a press conf ... she was sleeping around according to him. He was not the only one. What a rat!

I hope that the National Enquirer can prove he is the one paying her the $15,000 per month.

And what guy flies across the country to make after midnight visits to take out an old girldfriend and oogle her baby even though it’s not his?

[wideawake]

February 27, 2008 is the birth date.

Assuming a full term and given the standard 40 week gestation count, that places conception on or about May 27, 2007 - or just a few weeks before Elizabeth Edwards publicly announced that she had terminal cancer.

[weegee]

This slug had the audacity to think he could do a Clinton and hide this stuff while running for POTUS. Nobody can out slut Bill Clinton and get away with it.

Who do you think had the NE on speed dial?

[ElkGroveDan]

The silky pony was caught mounting another mare.

[pissant]

On the bright side, there is still time for Larry Sinclair’s story to break wide open. I can’t wait.

[ravingnutter]

Wow, I haven't seen a single comment about the fact that his PAC "paid her $114,000 to produce campaign website documentaries despite her lack of experience." IMHO, that is the most damning issue.
