The family of John Edwards' former mistress, Rielle Hunter, is challenging the former senator to take a DNA paternity test after his claim that he did not father Hunter's six-month old child.
In the first reaction from Hunter's family, her younger sister Melissa told ABC News that Edwards should immediately follow through on his pledge to take a paternity test.
"I would challenge him to do so," the sister said. "Somebody must stand up and defend my sister," she said. "I wish that those involved would refrain from bad-mouthing my sister."
In his interview with ABC News correspondent Bob Woodruff acknowledging the affair, Edwards said he knew the child was not his because of "the timing" of the pregnancy and the affair.
"I would welcome participating in a paternity test," Edwards said. "I'm only one side of the test, but I'm happy to participate in one."
Hunter left her Santa Barbara home earlier this week in advance of Edwards' ABC News interview.

"I'm only one side of the test, but I'm happy to participate in one." Is he saying they should do a DNA test to prove that Hunter is the mother?

VERY interesting....because NO explanation has been given as to why he was with the woman and child in the middle of the night....
It’s also very convenient that THIS story is getting all the media attention instead of the recent departure of Obama’s “Muslim liason.”

Checkmate... put up or shut up time... is Rielle a slut or is the silk pony lying his a** off again? I read both his and his wife's statement. They must have both referred to "2006" a dozen times. I think he's lying his a@@ off again.

He said he did not father the baby. He obviously did not and is not fathering the child.
However, this doesn’t rule out he is the sperm donor.

"I would welcome participating in a paternity test," Edwards said. "I'm only one side of the test, but I'm happy to participate in one." B.S!THE FIX IS IN!

I'm only one side of the test, but I'm happy to participate in one. Lessee, there was the ex senator, the girl, the aide...are there sides yet to be known?
...it's a free concert from now on....

""Somebody must stand up and defend my sister," she said. "
I guess $15,000 a month and new digs in California aren't enough for the family.
