Edwards Trial: 1 not guilty verdict, mistrials on other counts

[Wrong Element]

Still convicted of being a giant douchebag, but there's no prison time for that.

Probably the right call for the jurors. I never thought this stuff was illegal (if anything you can do with campaign money can be "illegal" in post-Citizens United America), just slimy.

He has to look in the mirror to comb his lovely locks. Let us hope he hates what he sees.

The only positive thing about this verdict is that right wingers will be disappointed.

Nah, with the rest of it. He's a sleazeball. His type is one of the problems with the US medical system.

I thought wealth trickled down. Isn't greed good? Doesn't his rising tide lift all boats?

really? sure for him, his mistress, his lover, and his lover john kerry

 

[KRCummings]

I'm actually a little surprised he got away clean like this. I thought he'd do a small amount of time. Good on the jury for not convicting just because he's a sleaze. At least they apparently tried to stick just with the case.

 

[Wrong Element]

His smarmy statement after the verdict was a reminder of why he's not missed in public life.

I guess it was nice of him to give a shout-out to the daughter that he denied was his for so long.

 

[ChinaBandit]

The case was very dependent on the testimony of Mr. Young. His wife appears to have undermined much of that. I doubt the remaining five charges will be pursued. Nothing is left but a handful of sand. The one man clearly guilty, Young, cooperated to avoid prosecution in the effort to nail Edwards.

really mr. lib.

The private sector gave him millions for his own use. Just saying.

I agree.

 

[ChinaBandit]

Is Edwards still with Hunter, as in a couple? For whatever reason, I'm not clear on that.

According to the news? No.
