John Edwards: The People's Senator

Via JVL, I see that Andrew Young — you might remember him from such political scandals as “I fathered Rielle Hunter’s baby, not my boss the presidential hopeful” — has a new tell-all hitting book stands. It includes little nuggets like this one, apparently:

Young says Edwards is an Atkins-dieter who hated making appearances at state fairs where “fat rednecks try to shove food down my face. I know I’m the people’s senator, but do I have to hang out with them?” Before a SEIU candidate forum in Las Vegas, Young says Edwards made him cut out a “made in the USA” label from Young’s own suit to sew in place of Edwards’s “made in Italy” label.

Man did the Democrats dodge a bullet with this clown. Between Young’s book and Game Change that becomes abundantly clear. The only way things could get any worse for him is if that sex tape ever emerges. And if it does, well, just don’t tell me. Because I’ll be forced to watch, then forced to gouge out my eyes in disgust. And I really need my eyes. So, y’know, leave me be.
