John Edwards is a Baby Daddy…
Former presidential candidate and Obama endorsee, John Edwards is now stuck up to his neck in the muck of political scandal.
For over a year, the National Enquirer has been following a story that Edwards has been having an affair and a subsequent love child with a woman who had worked on the campaign staff. The Enquirer further accuses Edwards of having close friend and aide, Andrew Young take the blame for the fathering of this child. Young himself is married but has stayed with his wife.
On July 21st , when Edwards was in Hollywood for an event, he orchestrated a late night rendezvous with his baby mama, Rielle Hunter and daughter Frances Quinn Hunter. The National Enquirer caught up with Edwards in the basement of the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel. When confronted, the former Democratic Senator from North Carolina ran and hid in a hotel restroom for fifteen minutes until hotel security could come and escort him off the hotel premise. Hopefully, when Edwards was stuck in the bathroom he didn’t hide with a wide stance.
Now the National Enquirer accuses Edwards of having a wealthy political ally pay Rielle Hunter a $15,000 payment per month as hush money to keep her silent. The Enquirer has this quote about the payments, attributed to a source close to the situation:
“A super-rich pal – who was closely involved with the campaign finances – is helping John. It’s likely this man doesn’t know all the dirty details of John’s extramarital affair, but is acting out of loyalty and is not asking a lot of questions – only writing the checks.”
Meanwhile, through all of this, Edwards wife Elizabeth, was home continuing her valiant fight against breast cancer.

Wow.. so you’re calling the National Enquirer a reputable news source? This is the same rag that routinely has such covers as “Elvis seen with aliens in San Hose” and “ND woman has Bigfoot’s Baby”. And you’re thinking this is even possibly a reality?
The woman Edwards was visiting is the producer of his show, Rielle Hunter. He arrived at the hotel with another male employee. The National Enquirer is claiming that he was visiting his “love child”, however both Rielle Hunter and her boyfriend, Edward Young have confirmed that the baby is Mr. Young’s. The only person claiming Edwards hid from reporters in a rest room is a security guard that the Enquirer PAID for the story.
Now get a grip, already. And if you want to read salacious gossip about politician’s personal lives you might try looking into McCain’s affair with lobbyist Vicki Iseman.
