Looks like Andrew Young, John Edwards aide is shopping for book deals.
"Mr. Young, who has since renounced that statement, has told publishers in a book proposal that Mr. Edwards knew all along that he was the child’s father. He said Mr. Edwards pleaded with him to accept responsibility falsely, saying that would reduce the story to one of a political aide’s infidelity."
"In the proposal, which The New York Times examined, Mr. Young asserts that he assisted the affair by setting up private meetings between Mr. Edwards and Ms. Hunter. He wrote that Mr. Edwards once calmed an anxious Ms. Hunter by promising her that after his wife died, he would marry her in a rooftop ceremony in New York with an appearance by the Dave Matthews Band."
I don't understand why in this day and age John Edwards would go to this extent to cover up his affair and love child. It's not like he's a Republican running on family values. It's perfectly reasonable why he would have this affair: His wife was getting old, fat, sick, and undergoing cancer treatment which makes her further more undesirable and abnormal-looking. Any sane man would have ditched her right away. I know he was running for President at the time, but had he come out I'm sure the mainstream media would've empathize with him and get him tons of extra good press. Instead the mainstream press had to assist him in covering this up, further reducing his visibility.
Well it's nice to know John Edwards has a plan to be happy soon. He already had his mistress move her home closer to his, and they're probably planning their grand wedding ceremony right now. Only thing they're not set on is the date, which shouldn't be too far off now given how sick Elizabeth Edwards is.
Hopefully Obama will give John Edwards a high cabinet position as his wedding gift. Edwards was suppose to be appointed the U.S Attorney General as his reward for endorsing Obama and stopping Hillary, but I guess he wanted his private life to settle down first before accepting such position.
