Y'know who was Edwards campaign manager in 2004? David Axelrod.

Be great if he could be tied up to some of this crap.

I could not agree more with everything you said in your response.

The Fox Legal reporterettes somewhat predicted this a few days ago. Not this exact outcome, but they basically said Edwards is one of the most brilliant lawyers of the generation, and he could be guilty as sin of anything, but he probably could twist out of most anything.

I don’t care about that, I want to know if he got a date with the alternate juror he’s been flirting with.

Now the question is did he use campaign funds to pay his attorneys? I wouldn’t be surprised.

Better, make all contributions legal but open.

I wouldn’t hold his parents to any account. They are victims, as well, including his adult daughter, of his lying, conniving, jiving, consniving (is that a word?)...suffice to say, all his family members-those that have stuck with him, beginning to end - are all victims of this lying, creep of a human being.

So, is the million dollars then a personal gift, if not a campaign contribution?

Anyone notify the IRS?

UYnfortunately, that's not possible. Axelrod was 2004, the trial deals with 2008 -- when Axelrod wasn't involved.

Absolutely agree. My oldest who carries my name lies, cheats, steals and is unfaithful to every woman in his life. You have to watch your wife, daughter and grandmother around this pig of a human being. His four siblings and mother cannot stand him either. Was a fun kid until about 14. Made the choices and needs to pay for them.

It’s sad... that the trial will be over BEFORE the elections.

As one our FREEPER FRiends said yesterday, “A parent should NOT be accountable for their adult children” and I tend to agree 100 percent.
