Would Barack Obama bring John Edwards out of hiding?
If he won could we see John Edwards again? He's the only one that talks about the poor I sure hope someone brings him out of solitary confinement.

3. Edwards will never be a public figure again.
The man betrayed his wife, his kids, his party and his country. Hard to ask for trust after that.

4. Unless you're a republican

Then they not only ask for it, but demand and expect it. See Newt Gingrich for one example

eta: not "you" as in you, but the general "you"

6. If Colin Powell can do it for some without apologizing for his sins of war
then Edwards may be able to do it too.

Brittany Spears is on her way back now on the top 40 hits now.

Amerika! Wow, what a country!

9. Betrayed his wife, his kids, his party and his country.
For a minute, I thought you were talking about McCain, but then I remembered no. McCain is a public figure.

8. Edwards will have to work this out for himself
and he will probably start doing so after the November election is over. Right now he is only fuel for the republican fire, and he is right/wise to stay out of the limelight.
