UPDATE: I don’t really want to know any details about this affair, but besides being a terrible thing to do to an ailing wife, it also is a huge waste.  I have said in the past that John Edwards would one day be president.  I figured he’d have serve a couple terms as governor of North Carolina then make another presidential run down the road.  But none of that seems possible now.  I may be speaking prematurely, since lots of politicians get past indiscretions.  But, still, what a pity.
