Most Shit

Just when you think the longrunning soap opera of John Edwards and the "paternity question" couldn't get lower, it does. Rumor has it he is about to admit paternity of the baby of the infamous Lisa Jo Druck aka Rielle Hunter.

While John and Elizabeth continue to remain married, they don't much act like it anymore:

Shortly after he withdrew from the race in January 2008, Mr. Edwards and his wife were given a huge ovation when they attended a basketball game at the University of North Carolina. But a few months ago, when the couple showed up for dinner at a Chapel Hill restaurant, diners averted their eyes and stared at their plates, according to a person who was there.

At the recent Boston funeral of Senator Edward M. Kennedy, Mrs. Edwards walked several steps ahead of her husband, greeting people exuberantly. Far fewer people approached Mr. Edwards, who appeared ill at ease.
