Edwards admits extra-marital affair

Former presidential candidate John Ewards admitted to an extra-marital affair today. Were he to have secured the Democratic nomination, as he sought earlier this year, he would have created an untenable candidacy for not only himself but for his entire party.

Sen. Edwards' problems are his own, and would be private if he indeed was a private person. But, he isn't. Instead, he has sought and secured high public office and he even sought the highest office in this country.

This is someone without a lot of good sense. It is up to Mrs. Edwards to decide what kind of husband this fellow is. But, where it involves being a U.S. senator and presidential candidate, he has proven himself to have exceedingly poor judgment, in my opinion. I wouldn't vote for the man to be dog catcher.
