...DEVELOPING...

NATIONAL ENQUIRER WORLD EXCLUSIVE: JOHN EDWARDS LOVE CHILD SCANDAL!

The woman linked to Presidential candidate John Edwards in a cheating scandal is more than six months pregnant and telling a close confidante that Edwards is the father of her unborn child, The NATIONAL ENQUIRER has learned exclusively.

The NATIONAL ENQUIRER's political bombshell comes just weeks after Edwards emphatically denied having an affair with Rielle Hunter, who formerly worked on his campaign.

But The ENQUIRER has now confirmed not only that Rielle is pregnant, but she is also living in Chapel Hill, N.C. in a gated community, just a few streets away from Andrew Young, who has been a key official in Edwards' campaign.

Young has been in charge of looking after Hunter, according to sources, and she has been careful to stay out of sight during Edwards' campaign. A former Director of Operations for Edwards' campaign, Young's last official position with the campaign was North Carolina Finance Director.

He left that job about a month ago — nearly the same time Rielle relocated from the New Jersey area to Chapel Hill.

In a bizarre twist, Young, a 41-year-old married man with young children, now claims HE is the father of Reille's baby.

But others are skeptical about his claim and talk of a political cover up is heating up.

Reille, when contacted in person by the NATIONAL ENQUIRER, denied that she was Reille Hunter. Later, she hired a lawyer and issued a statement, saying that Young is the father.

But a source close to the 43-year-old divorcee says Rielle has told a far different story privately.

"Rielle told me she had a secret affair with Edwards. When she found out that she was pregnant she said he was the father."

Rielle loves Edwards and will do anything to protect him, the source said.

The NATIONAL ENQUIRER has obtained exclusive photos of a visibly pregnant Rielle and learned from close sources that she has been in phone contact with Edwards. That information has not been denied by anyone.

"Rielle told me while Andrew Young is a friend, she's not romantically involved with him," says the source close to Rielle.

MORE DETAILS WILL BE POSTED HERE LATER AND ARE IN THE NEXT EDITION OF THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER!

Sorry, bert. I read too quickly and got confused.

Oh, well, the article belongs here anyway so as to show the motivation of the Clintonistas.

Isn’t this a resume enhancer for Democratics? I’m thinking Bill leaked it to sabotage Hill’s chances.

I would not jump on the Clinton bandwagon so soon.

Hildabeast has the real possibility of coming in third in Iowa. Her campaign has made the decision that if they cannot finish first, they will finish second. I would bet the ranch that Hildabeast has put this out. If she can’t touch Obama, she’s going after Edwards for second.

I SOOOO want this story to be true. Then the rest of the world will see what I see: a sleazy, phony, amoral scumbag. I can’t wait ‘til his hairdresser comes forth to admit that his hair is fake (at least on the top.

Yep, this is Hillary. She must have made a calculation that she would get more of Edwards’ votes.

"Because we all know the National Enquirer checks, re-checks, and then checks again."

I'd wager they are more accurate than CBS News or the New York Times. lol

Weekly World News was hilarious. Those guys who wrote it every week were comic geniuses. I hope they do well online. Can you imagine what their Christmas parties must be like?

Ooooooh! That's cold! {^)

Just the same, history will judge Dubya well and like another FReeper whose name I forget, I am thankful everyday that Dubya has been in the White House for the past eight years. I remember the alternative.

Just an Edwards ploy to get more RAT votes in the caucus. Everybody knows that RATs are supportive of deviant behavior....

Hmmm, Edwards is roadkill anyway.

This was posted just a few hours ago, over at MSNBC:

Poll: Edwards leads in Iowa
http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/12/18/524511.aspx

In an InsiderAdvantage poll in Iowa, Edwards leads among (977) likely voters 30-26-24 over Clinton and Obama. Edwards is also the clear second choice winner, 42-29-28 over Clinton and Obama. This is the first poll to show Edwards solely in the lead in Iowa since July...

These two stories [Edwards in the lead & Edwards love child] are NOT coincidental, by the way...
