After a lengthy deliberation, a North Carolina jury has reached a verdict in the John Edwards mistress-and-money trial.

The verdict is expected to be read shortly.

The jury began deliberating on May 18 after a month of testimony, which at times sounded more like a steamy soap opera than a trial on the intricacies of campaign finance rules.

Charged with six counts of violating federal campaign laws, Edwards was accused by the government of soliciting nearly $1 million from wealthy backers to finance a cover up of his illicit affair and illegitimate child while running for president in 2008.

Personally, I think his punishment should be... to shave his head. make him stand on Pennsylvania avenue in stocks with a sign

DO you want to make Obama do the same thing when Americans figure out Obama is simply a Muslim mole doing everything he can to destroy America?

Now you get to vote for your pro baby killing, pro same sex marriage POS CULT candidate. That will send a tingle down your leg.

And who might that be? I have no idea what you're talking about.

The only tingle I get down my leg is when my sciatica acts up.
