9. I'm not seeing a lot of moral outrage here.
Support for Elizabeth, yes, and a lot of posts like yours decrying the moral outrage. I think mostly people are just kind of baffled: the guy's got a great wife, he's running for the highest office in the country, and this is the decision he makes? A lot of his supporters find it so out of what they imagined his character to be that they're a bit shocked and disappointed. Edwards skeptics like me find this revelation to be of a piece with what they already suspected about Edwards: that he's a self-serving jackass with singularly bad judgment. Neither of those positions really qualify as moral outrage.
