Shocking reports are surfacing that John Edwards has a love child. The alleged mistress who was first reported in October reportedly was pregnant and went into hiding, and later gave birth. Luckily we have the photos of Edwards and baby, if we are to believe the National Enquirer.
See the new spy photo of John Edwards holding a baby in a hotel room and then come back for more below. The image above is from a political event which does not depict the baby in question.
When the story first broke months ago, the woman issued a denial of a relationship, and Andrew Young came forward to claim paternity for the child. But still the story would not die. Edwards has since affirmed that there was an affair but denies that he is the father.
The National Enquirer apparently followed Edwards and alleged mistress around until they witnessed a meeting. Reportedly, Edwards was seen leaving Rielle Hunter’s hotel room where she had brought the baby. He stayed until the wee hours of the morning when he was confronted by reporters. Edwards reportedly ran away and hid in a hotel bathroom. Read the story.
Shocked to see a reporter, and without saying anything, Edwards ran up the stairs leading from the hotel basement to the lobby. But, spotting a photographer, he doubled back into the basement. As he emerged from the stairwell, reporter Butterfield questioned him about his hookup with Rielle.
Edwards did not answer and then ran into a nearby restroom. He stayed inside for about 15 minutes, refusing to answer questions from the NATIONAL ENQUIRER about what he was doing in the hotel. A group of hotel security men eventually escorted him from the men’s room, while preventing the NATIONAL ENQUIRER reporters from following him out of the hotel.
By all means read the earlier National Enquirer Edwards story which broke the news in 2007,and see the pregnancy photos they published. Or read the story here.
The name of the woman allegedly having an affair with John Edwards should have been a campaign secret, but others identified the suspect as Rielle Hunter, formerly known as Lisa Druck. Whomever, she was reportedly in hiding with her flowering tummy unavailable for comment, if we are to believe the rumor.
One hopes that any pregnant woman has proper medical attention because far too many women are lacking basic medical care in this country. We can finally understand why a lawyer would be constantly pitching taxpayer funded health care. Edward’s campaign pitch may have been an attempt to shirk his financial responsibilities.
Rielle Hunter was a campaign worker reportedly paid $114,000 to make web commercials touting his virtues. Take all of this with a grain of salt until (and if) the story breaks in the major media.

I’m confused. Is she currently pregnant or is there already a child? Or both?

How sad that Edwards needed to feel manly when his aging wife with cancer couldn’t put out anymore. Just like Bill Clinton needed to feel manly when his aging wife refused to put out anymore. Can’t wait for the Enquirer’s next story showing a photo of Hillary with a strap on dildo.

I am going to give him the benefit of the doubt for now. The National Enquirer is not the New York Times. Come to think of it, The New York Times is no longer the New York Times.
There are 2 America’s - one for us and one for Edward’s girlfriend. In all seriousness, I can not believe that he would be this stupid.

the baby should be beautiful, I bet it looks like obama

Good luck to John Edwards’ girlfriend when she tries to find an OB-GYN. Thanks to ambulance chasers like Edwards, many of them have left the profession. Maybe the baby will have cerebral palsy and John Edwards can “channel” her to the jury, as he did in the infamous Jennifer Campbell case.

But is this the story that was allegedly being held by the Los Angeles Times as mentioned in http://www.onecitizenspeaking.com/2007/12/john-edwards-al.html ?

John Edwards is pro-abortion….so what’s the problem?
December 19th, 2007 at 12:06 am

I want to give birth to a love baby, she is so lucky. Congratulations to both of them.
December 19th, 2007 at 8:45 am
I gave birth to a brown baby boy once. I wish them both the best. Babies are truely a joy, especially around Christmas time.
December 19th, 2007 at 8:53 am
Let us pray that mother and child are doing well. Are baby gifts to be sent to Edwards headquarters or is there another adress where baby shower gifts should be sent?

Does the timing of this dirt fool anyone? It’s Clinton slash and burn politics, taking out anyone who stands in their way. I see Hillary trying to get back to the White House and think about all the lying, police-state tactics, use of private investigators to gather dirt and wipe out her political opponents, abuse of power, Whitewater, Travelgate, and other scandals of the Clinton White House too numerous to mention. The thought of her at the helm is scary–very scary.
Before you cast your vote, please consider the following about the first Clinton co-presidency:
• The Clintons were more concerned about what they could get from the presidency instead of honoring their responsibilities to this country. At the end of their term they were multi-millionaires. Ever wonder how they got so wealthy?
• Think about how they sold our military secrets, how they exchanged pardons for Puerto Rican votes in New York, freeing some of the worst criminals just so Hillary could have what she thinks she is entitled to. Will our democracy survive another four years of them?
• Hillary loves to play the victim–of Bill, of the Republican vast right-wing conspiracy, of all the Bimbos who sleep with Bill, etc. Can a victim be an effective president?
• Hillary’s long-suffering marriage to Bill, enabling him to have numerous sexual trysts — not just a one-time dalliance with Monica — results in her sense of entitlement. Do we want a president who feels the job is rightfully hers just because she’s suffered through 35 years of marriage to Bill?
• Hillary claims to be tough enough to play with the boys when, in fact, she is unable to leave a cheating husband. How will she stand up to other men who walk all over her?
• Hillary attacks her opponents with lies and innuendo far more than she talks about how she would attempt to cure America’s ills. What is her plan…does she even have one?
• Hillary has no experience. Being married to a president does not make one qualified to be president. As a married woman, I cannot relate to a woman who stays in a sick marriage so she can capitalize on her husband’s success, then pretend she did it on her own. She gives no specifics about her experience. More dodging accountability.
• Fact: She’s held elected office for one Senate term and has introduced no major legislation during that time. Is this the kind of experience we want in the Oval Office?
Hillary is not what she pretends to be. She is spinning her image — the same tactics Bill used on an unsuspecting American people the first time around. We should be smarter than that now. Do we really want them in the White House again?
Cast your vote wisely in 2008.

Since conservatives and other Americans never believe any news story unless it appears in a great newspaper like the New York Times, we must defer judgment.
December 22nd, 2007 at 10:38 am
This is just baloney and irresponsible. There is no baby pictures - the woman is still pregnant. There is nothing to tie her pregnancy to Edwards except she was supported by an Edwards campaign supporter. This is truly slanderous and since she hasn’t said publicly that the baby is his (though wink wink others are reporting that she has TOLD THEM) this is the oldest dirty trick in the book. As soon as he comments on it it will be picked up by the main stream press - and so far it is right wing blog sites and other blog sites that are reporting this story. When he comments on it the story will have LEGS - won’t be true but those that want to believe it without any evidence - no matter what.

Sam,
That was the same exact argument that Bill Clinton used in 1992 when 1992 when Gennifer Flowers went public. Now we all know that was not tr… oh, nevermind.
Furthermore, it is AOK for the left to accuse Bush of every crime under the sun up to and including wiring the World Trade Center to ensure that the buildings would crumble after being hit by planes.
I don’t know if this story is true or not but it IS strange that she is clearly being hidden away.
December 24th, 2007 at 3:40 pm
MDefl, why won’t Giuliani comment on this issue?
December 27th, 2007 at 10:57 am
fellow DEMS! don’t ya guys buy this crap! they did similar trick to John Kerry, slammed the man who lost blood and was an inch close to loose his life. And here we go again, best family man anyone of us has ever seen is turned into a God knows what! THIS IS TYPICAL REPUBLICAN LIE, NOTHING WILL MAKE ME BELIEVE IT’S TRUE, NOTHING! AND U GUYS JUST IGNORE IT
john edwards in 2008!!!
December 31st, 2007 at 10:57 am
It may a lie, but it certainly is not a TYPICAL REPUBLICAN LIE. It smells of the Clinton campaign. Believe me, the Republicans would love to see Edwards get the nomination.
December 31st, 2007 at 12:36 pm
Bloggy,
Rudy won’t comment because it may hurt the feelings of 1 of the 30 or so kids he has out there. Just kidding!
December 31st, 2007 at 12:38 pm
Seriously, no politican will comment. This story is like Kryptonite. Anyone who touches it will be finished.
January 1st, 2008 at 3:31 pm
I can’t believe anyone who believe this garbage, IF she is pregnant and in hiding, HOW could he be holding a kid that looks to be about 9-10 months old already? The lengths people will go to attempting to discredit someone….geez get a life!
January 29th, 2008 at 9:33 am
