John Edwards

A book by Andrew Young (not the black one, the other one) is out about John Edwards. A. Young was basically John's right hand man through all the sordid times. Sure tells a tale of how one candidate considered the electorate and the people he wanted to elect him. If he'd been elected, it seems Rielle isn't the only one who would have been....well, let's not go there, since Young does it so well. The arrogance of power? How can we get people other than these narcissistic self worshipers to run for public office? What a ladies man. Maybe his hair will fall out.

Young describes his alleged discovery of a compromising videotape of
Edwards and a naked, pregnant lover, identified by Young as Hunter. ?It
was like watching a traffic pileup occur in slow motion ? it was
repelling but also transfixing,? he writes.

Young says Edwards is an Atkins-dieter who hated making
appearances at state fairs where ?fat rednecks try to shove food down my
face. I know I?m the people?s senator, but do I have to hang out with
them??

To hide Hunter?s
expenses during her pregnancy, Edwards tapped funds from heiress and
socialite Bunny Mellon, known as ?the Bunny money,? as Young tells it,
with payment totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars. ?She did not
know that money was being used in part for Rielle,? Young says.

?Naturally thick and lustrous, his hair was a fixation
with him. He insisted on using just one kind of shampoo ? HairTec Thick
& Strong Shampoo for Fine, Fragile Hair,? Young writes.
