Rielle Hunter's book bombs--just sells 6000 copies.

Page Six: "Rielle Hunter has gone quiet after less than hoped-for sales of her memoir -- she's scheduled no additional tour dates to promote her tell-all about her relationship with John Edwards, What Really Happened. After a serious media blitz, which included interviews with ABC's Chris Cuomo and appearances on The View and Piers Morgan Tonight, Hunter, the mother of Edwards' daughter, Quinn, has sold 6,000 copies of her story."

Otherwise, she'll be crying that she threw over "Cheaty McBullshitter" in hopes of a big payday.

Who gives a crap about her sexcapades with her piggy ex-politician cheating boyfriend?

I think the rejection of her attempt to piss on Elizabeth Edwards' grave speaks well of our nation's values, overall. Chalk up a big plus one for real decency, not phony wingnut decency!

in the Enquirer, and other tabloids.

I do feel bad for their little girl. I hope everyone leaves the kid alone. I mean, the girl will be fine financially but... she is going to need extensive counseling as she grows older.
