John Edwards' Earlier Visit to Lover?
Fox News ^ | August 25, 2008 | Roger Friedman

Was John Edwards visiting his lover (and possible baby mama) Rielle Hunter earlier than thought?

Remember: the National Enquirer’s big scoop was that they found Edwards in the Beverly Hilton Hotel on July 22 at 2:30 in the morning. Their reporters cornered him in a basement bathroom after he’d been visiting Hunter and her baby, Frances Quinn.

Edwards later explained the meeting to ABC’s Bob Woodruff as a chance to discuss with Hunter how details of their association were coming out in the press.

But now a very credible source tells me they ran into Edwards at the Beverly Hilton on June 18, between 10:30 and 11 p.m. This encounter took place not in the ballroom at a public function or in one of the restaurants or bars, but again, in the basement parking lot.

“I came down to get something from my car, and I saw another car pull in and drop someone off,” says the source. “It was John Edwards. I couldn’t believe it. He was by himself. I asked him if he was staying there, and he said, no, he was staying with friends. He was very uncomfortable.”

Edwards and the person who told me this story then went inside through the garage door. “We probably went right past the bathroom where he got stuck a month later,” says the source. Edwards and the source then parted, with the former heading to the elevators by Trader Vic’s that bypass the lobby and go straight to the hotel rooms.

This was the same elevator Edwards would take a month later, from Hunter’s room back to the basement.

Calls to Edwards' representative were not returned.

If Edwards was visiting Hunter a month earlier than already reported, then his explanation of the July meeting doesn’t make sense.

Drip, drip, drip. Little details keep emerging. Maybe someday we’ll know the full story.

Rule # 1 of crisis management is that when bad news breaks, you want to get the whole story out there. You don’t want there to be constant new revelations in the story.

Rule # 2 of crisis management is that you have to admit to these embarrassing things, if discovered. Cover-ups generally don’t work. Sometimes the cover-up causes more grief than the original transgression.

National Enquirer have already said that they knew of at least one prior meeting at the Beverly Hilton, and there may have been others.

He really does live in a world were the rules are different for him.

Maybe Jonathan Edwards can do a show with John Edwards and have a seance with Edwards’ now dead political career...

A. Rielle poses for Playboy...or...
B. Sex tape hits You Tube.

Well I do suppose that a lot of Dems are wondering about her talents, at least enough to make a bundle of publication money. I wonder how much longer after the election she will be paid off? My guess is not for long.

When she finds out that matrimony with Dear John will not be happening, she may very well talk to Hugh Heffner.
