But as was said, Edwards is no “ordinary average” person, you know. He shouldn’t be subject to the same standards /s

My agreement would be, right, he shouldn’t be held to the same standards, the standards for those running for public office as a public servant should be even higher. It was always that way, at least in principle, until recent times. Apparently Clinton busted the whole thing open when he claimed that lying about an affair, even under oath, was perfectly natural and normal.

If John Edwards was a real man and a good father, he would step up, take responsibility for his baby, and give it his name.
