Thinkprogress:
Former Democratic presidential nominee John Edwards “will break almost three months of public silence when he speaks at 7 p.m. today” at the Indiana University Auditorium. Edwards will deliver a speech, give his reaction to the election, and answer students’ questions. “The Union Boards’ decision to bring Edwards to speak – which cost $35,000 – has garnered criticism on whether it is appropriate to pay someone to speak who recently admitted his extramarital affair.” (HT: On Politics)
UpdateThe San Francisco Chronicle reports that Edwards will also be debating Karl Rove at a "mortgage bankers convention" hosted by the Commercial Financial Association. The Chronicle notes Edwards was once a consultant for the New York hedge fund Fortress Investment Group.

Let's see we had George HW Bush had a mistress before, during and after he was President and does great in getting speaking events. Powell had a mistress and possiblily a child, that's why he didn't run for President but he does well in speaking events. Yes even my brother Bill Clinton had an affair but gets big bucks for speaking. Newt yelled for sinner Clinto to be impeached while he was sleeping with his wife and mistress. Newt was so brave he even helped his wife have an abortion so he could divorce her and marry his mistress.
Can't wait to see the Edwards / Rover debate!!!
