John Edwards deserves everything he's getting. The man ran for President while having an affair!! What kind of egomaniac doesn't think he's going to get caught in this day and age?? I used to think he was an ok guy - but now I think he's a real jerk. Sounds like everyone does.
John Edwards is burning up the phone lines, begging former aides and backers to forgive him for lying about his affair - but hearing their rage instead.
As Democrats kick off their convention Monday, the onetime presidential contender is a man without a party - or a political future - trying to rebuild bridges through dozens of remorseful phone calls.
It's proving a hard sell with onetime true believers.
Many are bitter and disillusioned after swallowing his lies about his affair with a campaign staffer and vouching for his credibility with friends and journalists.
Some ignore his plaintive phone entreaties and don't call back - even when Edwards leaves follow-up messages. A few return his calls - and give him a piece of their angry minds.
When Edwards reached one longtime confidant asking for advice, he was cut off with a terse: "I don't want you to call me again."
The conversation ended abruptly.

I agree w/you Nikki! He's a schmuck!
I used to like the guy. How disappointing that he's just another asshole politician.
He's just not as eloquent and well spoken as Bill Clinton. Somehow he got kinky with an aide and everyone thinks he's the bees knees. This assmaster just happened to get her pregnant (most likely). That's a bit more evidence than a blue dress.
You know there's got to be a "Wives Club" for this sort of thing - doesn't really have the same ring to it though does it? "Political Mistresses Club"...
