Well, John Edwards has 'fessed up to what you already knew.[1] [2] [3]
John Edwards, the former Democratic presidential candidate, has admitted that he lied by denying an affair with a former aide and conceded that friends and supporters might have bought her silence.
Mr Edwards, 55, a father of three whose wife Elizabeth has terminal cancer, was recently caught by the National Enquirer magazine secretly visiting Rielle Hunter, 42, and her six-month-old baby Frances Quinn Hunter at a Beverly Hills hotel in California. This week, photographs of him holding the baby girl were published.
The bombshell was a blow to Barack Obama, the presumptive Democratic nominee, whom Mr Edwards endorsed amid much fanfare in May. Mr Obama was on his campaign plane bound for Hawaii and a week's holiday when the news broke four hours before he was expected to land.

As just one of millions of blogs, there is little I can add to the story. I will archive it here for posterity.
I feel sorry for the children of John Edwards, and for his wife. John should have at least been thinking about them instead of his own selfish acts of self-gratification.
Now, I wonder how this will affect the rumored selection of Congressman Chet Edwards as Obama's Veep?
