CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – A man who once claimed he fathered the child of John Edwards' mistress now says in a book proposal that the former presidential candidate is the baby's father.

The New York Times reported Saturday that political donors made payments to the woman. The claims are all in a book proposal by former Edwards aide Andrew Young, who says he facilitated the affair between Edwards and Rielle Hunter.

The newspaper reports Young wrote that Edwards told Hunter they would marry after Edwards' wife died. His wife, Elizabeth, has cancer.

Edwards has denied he fathered the child. He has acknowledged that federal investigators are looking into his campaign funds.

Lawyers for Young and Hunter did not immediately return messages left Saturday. A spokeswoman for Edwards did not comment.

Bunch of folks going through a difficult time and I'm not going to judge anybody...
mainly because there isn't much comedy in this situation.

If there was something funny or hypocritical...I'd be all over it

I hate it for John Edwards wife.

I think it's funny as he!! that it's happening to him.

He's a cold hearted SOB that tried to play the good ole' southern boy family values BS role so actually it does involve hypocricy imho.

Exactly. Why isn't that funny, pauldun?

I about split my sides a few months ago when I heard he got busted at the hotel by National Enquirer of all things

I guess because its older news (the affair) at this point.

After awhile...it gets to the point where its no fun to poke it with a stick.

Plus the fact that his wife is terminal, and he's spouting off about how he will marry this chic WHEN his wife dies, and HOW he's going to do it.

It was funny with clinton....feeding her antifreeze and all, but she's only terminal in a bitch capacity. Edwards wife, however, doesn't deserve this crap

I'm quite sure is wife already knew all of this before we did, so I'm not too concerned about her being hurt by the press relevations.

I just think it's funny how for every denial he makes, he keeps having to retract it. First he claims he never cheated, then he admits he did but only once. Then he admits it was more than once, but that it didn't mean anything. Then it comes out that he is going to marry this chick after his wife dies. Then he claims the child isn't his, and now he admits it is.

I understand...but for me personally the lol factor has faded.
