Edwards acknowledges extra-marital affair

“First, obviously, what on earth was Edwards thinking? He knew in 2006 that he was gearing up for a presidential campaign, which he knew would bring added scrutiny to every facet of his life. Putting morality and decency aside, why even take the chance? .. Second, what if he’d won the nomination? .. Third, in the future, this will only encourage media outlets to be more aggressive in looking into candidates’ personal lives, which is really a shame.” Commentary: Dana Hunter
