Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy

We all knew this guy was a self-serving asshole, and his shits about to hit the fan.

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — His once-prominent political career is buried and the turmoil of his marriage is playing out in public. Now, John Edwards is facing a federal inquiry.

The two-time Democratic presidential candidate acknowledged Sunday that investigators are assessing how he spent his campaign funds — a subject that could carry his extramarital affair from the tabloids to the courtroom. Edwards' political action committee paid more than $100,000 for video production to the firm of the woman with whom Edwards had an affair.

Good riddance, again, you philandering, blow drying, ambulance chasing asshole.

What's really shocking about John Edwards' decision-making is the fact that had he won the Democratic nomination, and the story of his affair had broke in August as it had, he would have actually made his party vulnerable to losing a virtually un-losable election.

Sometimes you've got to take one for the team, and he didn't seem interested.

If he had won the nomination the Party and its accomplices would have done for him what they did for Clinton. They would have buried the story, demonized the mistress, shored up his wife and placed John-John on a gold pedestal.
