The National Enquirer has come out with another bombshell John Edwards allegation.
The reports that his mistress/babymomma, Rielle Hunter, won't say a word about their relationship and love child because she's been secretly receiving $15,000 a month from the former senator and presidential candidate.
The money is reportedly being funneled to Hunter by a wealthy colleague who was closely tied to the Edwards campaign.
This same man is also supposedly paying off Edwards’ pal and former aide Andrew Young – who tried to take the heat off the ex-Senator by claiming he is the father of Rielle’s baby.
An insider told the tabloid, “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,” revealed a source very close to the situation.
Johnny boy has yet to make a comment about the shenanigans asserted by the Enquirer.
Why not?
What do y'all think????

How do you know they don't have an arrangement like Hill and Bill, and so many other marriages for political gain and security? Not every wife is a victim. Maybe she's paying this woman to keep him happy in a way she no longer can. They have everything else that matters, and the press has certainly long known about it. This is a private matter. I'd still vote for him.
Perez this is total bullshit! Seriously, we have no pictures we have nothing regarding this altercation. Also, FOX news said they had a security guard say that he was there and saw it yet we dont know who this security guard is no name no video no nothing, also I find it hard to believe that no other press person saw him recognized him while they had a PRESS CONFERENCE going on with all these media outlets staying at the same hotel in essence a convention stop making a story out of nothing u piece of shit!
Re: Mark – Where should I look? The Enquirer? You must be a right wing moron who believes anything reported by FOX news. Eat shit moron.
……"IS OUR CHILDREN LEARNING?" ……SMOKE SUM POLE AND TAKE YOUR TRIPS DOWN THE HERSHEY HIGHWAY THE G.O.P. WAY! YOU DON'T GIT PREGGERS CHILDREN!!!! YOU GOTTA' TEECH EM' EARLY!!! DAYUUUUUM!
I can't believe you idiots actually take anything from the Enquirer as fact. You are all as dumb as Perez. You should all have a circle jerk together.
YAWN!!! I love all the republicans going on about these sleezy democrats and their affairs. Do they have jobs, or are they living off family $$, while they sit around and read Perez? It would take way too much effort to call one of those trade schools that advertise on daytime TV.
Lets get real, this is a politicians problem. Not just a democrats problem. Republican or Democrat, they're all narcissistic and many have affairs. Let's not forget these famous republican indiscretions:
-New York's "vito" Fossella who has admitted to a 3 year-old love child.
-Newt Gingrich who had numerous affairs while his first wife was ill with cancer and finalized the divorce while she was in the hospital with cancer.
-John McCain, who left his fist wife after she had a disfiguring car accident.
- Larry Craig and his "unusual" stance in the bathroom stall.
-And let's not forget Strom Thurmond who had a black love child, even though he is most famous for his segregationist beliefs. Originally a democrat, he changed political affiliation and became a republican.
John Edwards is a politician, and thinks he is invincible, period.
The notoriously liberal mainstream media won't touch this with a 10 foot pole(especially with a presidential election looming on the horizon). But, once all the facts are in (and I suspect ole Johnny Boy won't look so good) all the media will be all over this like a cheap suit. We just have to sit back, wait and watch it play out.
THE ENQUIRER!!!! PULEEZ!!!! STICK TO YUR SHOWBIZ NONSENSE!!
I SAW THE WOMAN INTERVIEWED…..SHE WAS ON THE STAFF….NOTHING MORE……. LEAVE HIM AND HIS FAMILY ALONE!!!!! IF IT WAS TRUE…IT WOULD BE ON FOX…..THE OTHER IDIOT STATION!!
He is vile.
His wife is fighting cancer and struggling to live.
Meanwhile, she sacrificed and supported his Presidential campaign. She really stuck it to Clinton to court the female vote - bet she's sorry now.
Why is FOX News the only media source picking this up? Maybe there is more hush $$$$ going around…why wouldn't MSN or CNN put this out there!
Puto con pluma. Without shame.
so poodle, why do you suppose this isn't being carried by ANY network or cable news???? hummmmmmm, sounds like fckn LIBERAL BIAS to me!
$15K is a lot of dough!!!
He's dirty. Like probably 80% of politicians are. Including the two currently running for president.
The shitious enquirer rag has zero credibilty.
$15K / month… i think: it's a good gig if you can get it bitches!
I like his chingina
Mario I think that you're a piece of trash for spreading these rumors.
……I HAVE ALWAYS PRAKTUZED SAFE SEX. I'LL NEVER FERGET MY 1ST TIME WHEN I WUZ A CHEERLEERER AT ANDOVER PREP. I CAME IN LATE AN DADDY AND BAR WUZ WAITIN' ON ME. MAMMA WENT TO BED. AND I TOLD DADDY 'W' THAT I FINALLY, FINALLY GOT LAID! WELL SIR…..HE WUZ SO PROUD THAT HE LET ME GO ON TO BED…..

……………….
THAT'S FAMILY VALUES - SAFE SEX, PEEPS! I KNOWED THAT YOU CAN'T GET PREGGERS WITH THAT KIND OF PRE-MARITAL SEX! STOP WHINING!
To all the dummies who think that things don't happen unless the "mainstream media" reports it: The Monica Lewinsky scandal was broken by Matt Drudge before he was a name in news. It is precisely because entities like Drudge, Perez, and yes, even the Enquirer are free to report what they discover that the American people even know what's really going on. If it were left up to the "mainstream media" we would only know exactly what "they" want us to know… and nothing more.
It's only paranoia if it's not true. lol.
Re: Kali – John Edwards made his fortune as an ambulence chaser… if that's what you mean by "looking out for ordinary people." As a constituent in NC, I can tell you that I've never met a follow North Carolinian who supports this guy. During his presidential nominee run, he chose to base his campaign message on what's called class warfare, saying there are "Two Americas." This can be best demonstrated by visiting his 28,000 square foot home… and the trailer park across the street from it, whose tenants will tell you what a "stand up guy" he really is. John Edwards did nothing for the people of North Carolina. And if he really cared about the people, maybe he could get a regular haircut and give the remaining $360 to charity.
BUTT CHIN
As usual "what can they do"?
NE is right again as always!!!
LOVE YOU NATIONAL ENQUIRER! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
AND WEED OUT THE FRAUDS!!!
I L. O. V. E. THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER!! YEEEEEEEE HHHHHHAAAAAA!!!
I refuse to believe stuff like this until the person being accused comes out and admits it themself. I love John Edwards. He was the only candidate in the election that I actually liked.
buttchin
He's not responding to the accusations made by the Enquirer because ITS THE ENQUIRER!!!!! Why do you think no reputable news media has picked it up? BECAUSE ITS NOT TRUE you fucktard! Perez, you're an idiot and so are all these other sheep that believe everything you write. I hope you get sued for slander and defamation.
NBA star Eric Montross is the one who has been paying Edward's mistress $15,000 a month.
See, Dems can be sleezebags too!
Okay, I know what I just said, but I looked it up on the internet myself and all I can say is his sleaziness has no boundaries. I kind of suspected this guy being a phony snake oil salesman. But I let my liberal brainwashing dictate all my thoughts. Well no more! I'm thinking for myself from now on! FU! John Edwards!
What a dumbshit. He should watch McCain to see how it's done: first, find out if the bitch has money her$self, THEN start banging her and leave the first wife.
Look at the source. Duh. Why are you even posting this shit for the NE? You are doing nothing but fanning the flames of untruth.
He can't help it. He is a Democrat like me. We are sexy bitches. Everyone wants us. I'm beating 'em off with a stick with one hand and typing with the other.
horrible!
Re: Duh – Exactly. Matt Drudge busted the Clinton/Lewinsky story because Newsweak refused to run the story. When Kennedy was president the media knew he was screwing like hell but kept it secret until he was long dead. If Edwards were a Republican it would be the lead story on the nightly news. Letterman would spend his entire monologue on it. When Cong. Gary Condit was accused of murdering Chandra Levy, CBS never mentioned it. Of course, Dan Rather was running the news at the time. For all of you who think the Enquirer is rag paper, its huge legal team is headed by the Clinton's former White House lawyer. He is no dumbass. Don't forget, the pictures of Edwards hiding in the mens room will blow the lid off this and all you deniers can cry in your cheap beer.
This is typical narcissistic behavior. His formerly beautiful wife got old, fat, and sick. He has pampered himself and still looks good (He Thinks ) and is a rich, powerful guy and therefore deserves a hottie. He was just sooooo stupid to knock her up. Narcissists always think they can do whatever they want…..no rules apply to THEM! What a horrible president he would have been! LOSER!
Stick a fork in John Edwards, his political career is over.
I fail to see how a man who we TWICE picked to be one of the most powerful men in the United States is irrelevant.
The guy cheated and lied to the most important contractual partner in his life- his wife, and he went through a huge coverup to avoid telling the truth.
What if he had clinched the nomination??? Would he have just handed over the election to McCain?
Edwards deserves to have every woman in every airport look at him with scorn for the rest of his life.
I'm an extremely loyal Dem…but this guy is a whiney bitter little demon. And his wife has always been just as bitter on the interview circuit–bet she feels stupid now!!! John Kerry made a mistake picking this guy–that, and not defending himself against the ‘Lil Bush Gang. You have to fight fire with fire. I bet (deservingly) Hillary is laughing now!!
This is awful. The press is breaking up a family for no sake except to make money. Perhaps Mrs. Edwards knew. Perhaps they had all reached a sort of peace about his relationship with the mistress. Now the press is airing their dirty laundry for everyone to see and they HAVE to do something about it.
Leave well enough alone. Everyone has problems.
Re: b – I'm a registered Independent that has financial security that allows me to not work and do whatever I want during the day. I live off no ones money but my own.
All while his wife is dying of cancer.

See what pisses me off if this were a republican it would be " See I thought you were the moral party", but since its a Fu–in liberal its " hey we never said we have morals". I hear that shi- all the time.
I actually had a meeting with him a few years ago, and found him to be a real sleaze. Checking out the rack, holding on to my hand a little too long and he just is a gross person in general. I am so happy he is not the Democratic candidate!
I'm lovin' how he made his chin look like the whore's fish hatchery!
If Elizabeth Edwards was still alive she'd be beating his ass but where's the foul though now that she's gone? He's single. SHE's single… doesn't he get any credit for giving his baby-momma a very generous monthly allowance?
props to perez for having the cajones to cover this story when everyone else in mainstream media refuses
Come on sheeple!
John Edwards would be all over the media denying this - if he could.
He'd also be suing the National Enquirer for damages - if he could.
If you open your blind eyes - you'd see his actions are speaking loudly.
The mainstream media! Ha you mean those new outlets in the tank for liberal clowns like Edwards? Now maybe people will FINALLY wake up and realize what a joke the NY Times, Wash. Post, NBC, etc. really are. Nowaday's the National Enquirer is just as credible as those other "news" sources. Wake Up!
15 grand a month, ill have his baby.
Who cares?
All these stupid stories due is upset the family members of all involved.
Why do we need to know these things.
Doesn't effect our lives at all.
It's vicious and cruel.
Does the media ever report good or only evil?
OMG: this just in! Jon Edwards and the girl from Juno are having a love child, too!!! And they're naming it Jason Bateman — whether it's a boy or girl!!! I saw it on Jenny Jones!! Turn on your TVs right now!! Put down whatever book you're reading, stop thinking, critiquing, wondering…and turn on your TVs!!!
Re: Kali – are you kidding, he made millions bilking dr.s and insurance companies, hard working my ass, maybe in the bedroom while his wife is dying of cancer… you must be the one person who believes that these politicians practice what they preach, may i remind you of a certain ted kennedy, or all the kennedy's for that sake…
time to open your eyes
Re: Abbi – or pictures of people who WAIT to have families until they finish school and make MORE than $30K. That'd be hot too!
Why didn't he respond? It's the effin Enquirer, for chrissake! No photos to back up this story…I call bullshit!
he is a scumbag!not in the mainstream media because he is up for a possible position in the obama camp and left wingers will do anything to protect this gem!!! fox news did confirm with hotel security that he was hiding in the hotel. why won't cnn or nbc? nothing to jeopardize obama.
I have been waiting for this story to break all week!! It is TRUE!!!!! I have a VERY reliable source in one of the midwestern states….. There is another doozie about Michelle Obama which should be out in no time…
wow Perez…. glad to see your going the way of "fixed news"
Re: Abbi – you know, for someone who's so critical of this site, you seem to be spending alot of time here making comments. i'm sure there are plenty of hippy-liberal-birkenstock-wearing-bushisachimp-save-the-whales websites that would seem to suit your tastes a little better.
total lie.
You just don't give up do you Perez?
You have no considerations at all for his dying wife which has totally change my opinion of you I use to think you were funny…but realize you are now downright mean and wallow in this kind of yellow journalism.
I hope someday when they print a story about you that isn't true and is absolutely downright dirty like you are dying of something which you are not and have sexual relations with everyone… I want to see how you feel then about the National Enquirer.
These are just rags, all of them and the magazines also. How can you believe any of the crap in them and how anyone can buy this shit and believe it..well they are just as bad as you and stupid.
He thining Vice President nomination for Obama. NOT
let's do the math here.
$15,000/month = $3750/week = about $107/hour, based on a 35 hour work week.
He can plow my vag and I'll give him a love child for that kind of money. Sure beats the $12/hour I'm earning now.
Perez you are a fucking idiot! Be responsible with the stories you are posting, it is a) most likely untrue because no legitimate source is writing about this, b) the woman is probably denying it because it's not true! Think about Edwards family too, how do you think they feel with their mother sick and people accusing their father of an affair, what is wrong with you? Edwards wants to make some truly great reforms in America and this bullshit won't help him. Get a clue and get over yourself, you also though Castro was dead, he isn't.
What a pig. Wife dying of cancer. What is he doing in a hotel with this skank at 2:40, sperm donor or not. What a pig.
What a pig. Wife dying of cancer. What is he doing in a hotel with this skank at 2:40, sperm donor or not. What a pig.
Since when is the National Enquirer a valid news source? What the fuck would he say?? Republicans are dirty bastards who are trying to discredit the party… "Let's attack the guy who won't HAVE to respond and validate our story, and is too busy to deal with our sh*t because his wife is dying of cancer!"
sorry to say but he always grossed me out and I'm from PA!

Guitly as chraged you cheating bastard!!! Let the punishment fit the crime!!!
What a douche! His wife is battling cancer and he's off impregnanting some floozy. Typical politician.
OOOOOHHHH NOOOO! ANOTHER LYING, CHEATING LIBERAL FRAUD PIECE OF CR@P!
There are only two people who know the truth: John and Rielle.
Until they confirm the story, I don't think we should believe it.
John Edwards is a very attractive man - he would never do something like this to his wife and children. Someone is out to destroy him and his chances of being vice-president. Who would have any interest in doing something like that??
Who cares?
Why do we have to even know about this?
Doesn't affect our lives at all.
The media is so vicious and cruel.
Print good not evil.
This is awful for all the innocent family members involved.
VAGINA CHIN!!!!!!
Getting a friend to pay hush money is pretty impressive. I can't get my friends to pick me up at the airport.
Re: Pervo –
The LAST people who deserve to have "excessive" responsibility and money is politicians. They've proven for more than 100 years that they are not capable of doing the jobs that are put before them. I say this year, get all the shit out of the house of reps and senate, bring the guiatine back, chop some heads off, put them on display in the house and senate, and tell the officials-this will be you next if you don't do what the people want FUCKING NOW!!!!! Read the second paragraph of the constitutuion–it's WE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE IN CHARGE, not these inbred losers who think by being appointed to office it gives them any power, WRONG, THE PEOPLE HAVE THE POWER AND WE CAN AND SHOULD TAKE IT AWAY FROM THEM ONCE IN A WHILE TO TEACH THEM A LESSON!!! Bush and his WHOLE administration (mafia family=nazi family I mean) should be drawn and quartered in front of all nations to show we mean business, then other nations will follow and get rid of their corrupt governments as well. It's never "the people" of nations who are the problem it's the fucking drunk with power leaders!!!
Elizabeth Edwards died in January, people. Give John a break, its been six months since his wife passed, what is he supposed to do, remain celibate his whole life?
Edwards knows he can fool around because his wife won't live long enough to take half his money in a divorce settlement. What a scumbag.
If Elizabeth Edwards should ever pass away before John does, I do not want this loser saying he loved her. I know she had cancer, terminal. I know she probably did not have a sex drive. I know they made a good couple. We know all of this and more. This story about Hunter and Edwards is true because it is out there and is not refuted by by him or his camp.
What a BASTA RD he is !!! And THAT WHORE ,Hunter. Why have an affair witha married man…because heisrich. Why have a baby w/a richmarried man and have your child have no public or private relationship with that man…because he isrich. So when Edwards dies or Elizabeth or the election year 2008 is over ,Richelle Hunter wil lbe al lover the palce making her interviews and writing a book. What a shame. This BAS TARD and this
WHO RE need to rot in hell.
This man is such a total and complete dirtbag!! Hell would freezer over before I voted for him to do anything other than to DROP DEAd.
Re: WOW – THOSE MEAN OLD LIBERALS CAN'T ALL BE AS HONEST AS THOSE UPLIFTING, GODLY CHRISTIAN, CONSERVATIVE, FAMILY VALUES REPUBLICUNTS…..HMMM….SUCH AS MARK FOLEY, SEN.

OMG you guyzzzz!!!! John just sold his Birkenstocks on ebay and used the money to get a haircut!!! He also gave the shirt off his back (a Save the Whales t-shirt, go figure) to a single mother of three (she was NEVER married!) AND she works in a plant in northern Minnesota (totally not in style right now, unless you're working there ironically).
Re: WOW – unlike your nasty party at least they cheat with the correct sex. so eat shit and die you hypocite.
Whether or not it's true, must they go through this in the public eye.
John and Elizabeth have been married a long time and have lost a child in a car accident when he was young. They have 4 children two still young and are religious and devoted to one another. This is her second battle with cancer.
Nothing of this matter in the Enquirer has been validated.
Dude, seriously, what the fuck is wrong with you? IT'S THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER!
The mother has said the father is Andrew Young.
Andrew Young has announced he is the father.
Period.
This is a hit by the Media to take down one of the few wealthy Americans in politics fighting for poor people. The other rich Fat Cats do not like that. And Perez took the bait and spread the lie.
where are the pictures - they *CLAIM* to have ??????
Sorry, but after working on his campaign and meeting both him and his wife this is nothing but BULLSHIT!!! Consider it is coming from the National Enquirer, yeah, up right journalist, just like FOX news!
perez you are such an idot when it comes to politics, i love how your stories are sourced from the national enquirer and fox news. nice going scoop! maybe find a real story…
I mean what a shocker hasnt like most political figures done something like this?
Who the heck said Elizabeth Edwards has passed? So far as I know, she is still very much alive!!!
money. yes, it helps you go a long way!
…and these are the men who represent our country? i mean…i know all of us want a piece of ass every now and then but come on politicians lets try and be faithful sometime?!
another thing, i just noticed this was written by Enquirer. I may not believe this now. guess i will have to wait for more media on mr. edwards.
Think about it, people, why would the NE claim to have photos if they didn't? JE has NOT denied that he was at the hotel. As to why they haven't released the photos yet, it's because the NE is waiting for the right time….
Re: Peace –
When Tony Snow passed on July 12, 2008 , Elizabeth Edwards Remarked on how sad she was. Both Elizabeth& Tony were diagnosed with recurring Cancer with in a few days of one another. Elizabeth Edwards did not die in Jan. & yes her husband IS A SCUM BAG!!!!!!!
I totally believe it. This story has been quietly around for the past year. It was even talked about when the mistress became pregnant. He is pathetic, and I'm sure Elizabeth knows. Watch her clip from the Stephen Colbert show. Not only is she not wearing her wedding ring, watch her dull expression when she mentions her husband, and very little.
Why in the hell should we believe what the National Inquirer says? Funny - seems to be the only organization to report it. While I acknowledge the main stream media doesn't necessarily get the story right - I have yet to hear it in the main stream, only do we hear it from this fringe organization. This doesn't seem to jive - don't believe everything you read!
Of course the main stream media is not talking about this. They love the Democrats and would never try and bring up something that is negative press about them. I tend to believe it is true, This guy is an ambulance chaser,…he loves lwawsuits and would probably love to sue the Inquirer, but is afraid to bring any more attention to this, because it is true. I never liked the loser.
His chin in this picture says it all, he's a huge asshole. These people that think they are above the law fall the hardest. John's plummet has only just begun. Sidenote: The spin becomes part of the major joke on him and only serves to make this story HIGH-larious HIGHjinx.
Personal injury lawyers ( ambulance chasers ) like Edwards are at the bottom of the food chain. Right under used car salesmen. They have no soul.
Your far too simplistic take is just that, simp-listic! Basically you are saying don't hold him to any normal standards of behavior or consequences because some how he became exhalted??!! I think not. If we hold to that thread then NO ONE would have morals or standards and anything would be accepted in our society. Slippery slope, just ask the children who are molested by the men that believe "Sex before eight or it's too late." I'm sure Jeffrey Dhamer did some kind deeds in his life, should we have let him continue his seige based on that?
