Well, it did finish off John Edwards.

Or maybe the Democrats wanted to finish off John Edwards.

You’re right. Selective outrage.
Always when it concerns a Republican.
Maybe when it is a Dem
Definitely when it is an enemy of BHO or HRC

Yup, I think you hit the nail on the head.

However, there were two other factors that entered into it: Edwards' wife's illness, and the high probability that the 'love child' was actually his.

IMO Edwards was thrown to the willing media wolves because it took all the headlines for at least four-six news cycles, and the obama team thinks in small time bites.

Finished off? John Edwards was a “never started.” The only person in the world (that I know of) who ever thought he had a chance was John Edwards.
