Christians have a long history of forgiving adulterers - like Clinton, Jimmy Swaggart.  That's why he was so clear that he was cheating on his wife BEFORE her cancer returned - after she was diagnosed, cheating on her was unforgivable.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;That's also the reason he's so strongly denying that it's his baby.  If she got pregnant the old fashioned way it was 6 weeks after the diagnosis.  Like, he was doing her while his wife was in chemo.  If THAT ever gets traction, he's toast.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Nobody knows how that group of Christians would react to his having donor egg/sperm kids.  I'd hope they wouldn't care, but they can be very judgmental.  So they may be seeing how this plays out.  If it doesn't, they can switch to the surrogate story.  &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Othewise, why would Elizabeth still be supporting him?</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6385085882160667044/4909012183795755925/comments/default/226415189279794065'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6385085882160667044/4909012183795755925/comments/default/226415189279794065'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.e3gazette.com/2008/08/contrarian-muses-about-john-edwards-and.html?showComment=1219567283698#c226415189279794065' title=''/><author><name>Richard</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14789864340695137943</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.e3gazette.com/2008/08/contrarian-muses-about-john-edwards-and.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6385085882160667044.post-4909012183795755925' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6385085882160667044/posts/default/4909012183795755925' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6385085882160667044.post-1552837221021239195</id><published>2008-08-23T03:30:36.104Z</published><updated>2008-08-23T03:30:36.104Z</updated><title type='text'>No one would hire a 40ish surrogate with no kids. ...</title><content type='html'>No one would hire a 40ish surrogate with no kids.
