(Reuters) - A federal judge has ordered that the criminal trial of former senator and presidential candidate John Edwards be delayed three months until January 2012.

The delay was granted Wednesday after Edwards' lawyers requested more time to prepare a defense against charges that Edwards violated campaign finance laws.

The defense needs more time to review the sex tape Rielle made of them by hidden camera.

Edwards is a scumbag, but he did not commit a crime here. The money that went to his mistress came from two of his friends who knew what it was being used for and they also knew they were not donating that money to the campaign.

On the bright side, it's closer to the 2012 election...

Not that any LSM outlet will mention that his party affiliation.

I guess I'll have to buy the National Enquirer to keep up with the story.

Maybe I'll get a subscription as a Christmas present.
