In the discussion thread: John Edwards' betrayed wife 'tore off bra' [View all]

78. John Edwards was a phony even before news of the affair came out ...

all one needed to do was look at what he said and how he voted.

One did not need the affair to validate the fact that he was not what he portrayed himself to be, watch what is done, not what what is said, that goes for all politicians.
