Edwards | Edwards Attacked from the Past

The Hill is reporting that John Edwards loaned $30,000 to a judge who was deciding a case in which Edwards’ wife was counsel for the plantiff. I am not sure where this story came from and why it is just now coming out. Maybe someone is trying to put the nail in Edwards’ coffin. The story probably won’t hold much water because there is no evidence that either Edwards or the Judge made any effort to hide the transaction.

this may sound very meta, but here goes:

“I am not sure where this story came from and why it is just now coming out. “

…then why are you posting it in the news section as fact?

Because I don”t trust my judgment on the matter.
