Reply #55: You'd think, if he knew what damage an affair could do to his message [View All]

and his marriage, that he could have, at the very least, tossed a condom over his penis before he stuck it in. The smartest thing he could have done is just not do it.

I can't believe the guy is that stupid. It's plain, though, that he is.

Apparently, the tabloid Enquirer (and they've been right so far) say that he has admitted to his wife that the kid is his. He did that, they say, because his ditzy girlfriend was going to go public and he was cutting her off at the pass. Someone "on the inside" of this drama is getting good info--after all, they were able to get pictures of father and daughter IN the hotel room, too. And, the older the kid gets, the more she looks like her daddy: http://www.hollywoodgrind.com/john-edwards-baby-one-year-old/

I don't think this was "out of character" for him. I believe his public persona doesn't match his private one, thus, the disconnect.

It is also my belief that the reason his wife has cancer is because she took all those drugs to give him a son to "replace" the one that was killed. She had to push her body past its limits twice to achieve that goal, too. She denies that, but I do think all those drugs fucked her up and now she's dying for her "great gift" to this cheating bum.

JE didn't have "bad luck." He's an asshole who disrespected his wife. I find his conduct reprehensible and I believe HE, not that stupid cheesy woman you call a "thing," bears the brunt of the responsibility for the entire embroglio. He could have just said NO. He didn't, though. He believed his own publicity and fell for a few compliments from a space cadet. And he behaved that way because he felt he could do what he wanted without consequences. He's a fool.
