I find it interesting that this scandal broke right around the same time the Olympic games started and Obama went on his vacation. Also, the MSM seems to be more focused on this story than when Tony Snow or even Tim Russert died. It's just Edwards Edwards Edwards constantly, acting as if WWIII has just started.

So, is there some sort of conspiracy going on here, or is it a mere coincidence that the news won't stop talking about this?

Are you kidding me? Are you watching the same TV that I am?

The media went ape$hit when Russert died. All I ever do is watch the news, and they talked about Russert for almost a week afterward, near nonstop.

Edwards most likely released his statement on the day of the opening ceremony in hopes that we'd care more about the olympics than his sex scandal.
