Hopefully, his “two Americas” include jail.
I just have to laugh at the line from the AP article....
“and whether he had other practices that pushed the bounds of campaign finance laws,”
Why doesn’t AP just use the word “Illegal”?
And where is the word Democrat? If Edwards was a Republican it would be a very differently worded article (Hit piece).
I hope that little piece of hot pepper was lined with gold for ol’ John, ‘cause it sure has cost him everything else.
The reason he wants to marry the ugly skank is so she can’t testify against him.
What’s really low life about this guy is he’s a multi-millionaire but used contributions to pay off his mistress. What a sleeze bag!
Tom Delay faces five years to life in prison on the money laundering charge and two to 20 years on the conspiracy charge.

A person involved in the investigation and who is familiar with the financial transactions told The AP that Baldick provided Young a salary boost of about $30,000 to move off the Edwards campaign payroll onto one of Baldick’s private organizations around the time Young began taking care of a pregnant Hunter in fall 2007, when the primary campaign was heating up. Young also got more than $150,000 in payments as a commission for money he raised for Alliance for a New America. A month after Young got his last campaign paycheck on Nov. 14, 2007, he publicly claimed paternity of Hunter’s child.
The subpoena asks for material related to Rachel “Bunny” Mellon, the 100-year-old widow of banking heir Paul Mellon. Young wrote in his book that Bunny Mellon would send him checks for hundreds of thousands of dollars hidden in boxes of chocolates, and he would use the money to help keep Hunter in hiding from the public and cancer-striken Elizabeth Edwards, who died just last month. Young wrote that Edwards agreed they should solicit the money from Mellon.
Mellon also had donated to Edwards’ campaign and his PAC and almost single-handedly bankrolled the Alliance for a New America political group with $3.5 million from her investment fund, Oak Spring Farms, also listed in subpoenas.
Maybe Edwards can channel his ex-wife to convince the investigators of his innocence in these matters.
