The Edwards indictment goes to show that reform laws have not only served to take the politics out

Really, we are to a point where rich friends helping to hide a mistress is a felony? Good God.

1. not really new under the sun. Think Henry Cisneros
They wanted to burn Clinton in any way and with Henry they got a two-fer, a ding against Bill and took a rising star Hispanic out early on.

2. When will Ensign get this treatment. Just asking?? The Senate
turned his case over to Justice a while back.

Personally, Criminalizing Politics is a dangerous precedent.
