Why is John Edwards not at the Convention. Didn't he run for President?

Question

Hillary ran, and is speaking. Bill Cheated on his wife and is speaking. Why is Edwards not even there?

Answer 1

We all knew Bill was running around with his pants down back in 1992 when he campaigned against Pa Bush, and we still elected him.  Twice.  Nobody cares.

Hillary spoke because she's still a senator.

On the other hand, Edwards ran for president twice and didn't get the nomination.  And he couldn't even get elected in his own state.  And now that he's been caught cheating on his dying wife, after they both made such a big deal in the press about her having cancer, this just makes him look like the useless petty little douche that Tranny-Anne always said he was (holy s**z, I'm actually agreeing with Anne the Man!).  

At this point, everyone just wants John Edwards to sit down and be quiet.

Answer 2

I don't see how this concerns anyone other than democrats..  And I think it is obvious with his recent extra-marital scandal why he would choose not to attend.

Answer 3

It is a disgrace that he refuses to attend.  Some unity, huh??

Answer 4

They are saving him for dessert.  He will deliver a speech on family values near the end of the convention, followed by a few comments by his barber.

Answer 5

It's amazing. I'm sure Edwards and the Dems could find some way to blame Bush for Edward's infidelity.

Answer 6

BECAUSE HE WAS NOT INVITED

Answer 7

He is looking for another baby momma...get it while it's hottt!

Answer 8

He is out on a date with his girlfriend.

Answer 9

Isn't he tending to his love child that he conceived while his wife slowly dies from cancer?

Answer 10

Edwards fathered a b*****d child and is considered an outcast even by Democrat standards...

Answer 11

uuhh might have something to do with the big infideltiy scandal..they don't need that distraction at the DNC Convention

Answer 12

Good point.  Perhaps the Dems are too embarrassed to have him there.

Answer 13

Everyone knows that cheating on your wife is encouraged in the Democratic party.  They have to disown you for a few months, however, before they can welcome you back into their loving embrace.  Remember how Gore distanced himself from Clinton in 2000? Don't worry, in a few years, Edwards will have a huge part in the Dem party.  After all, who are we to judge him for trotting his cancer-stricken wife around, aiming for the sympathy vote, while he impregnates some other chick on the side? Expect to see this embodiment of Democratic ideals speak at the 2012 convention.

Answer 14

The scandal is still new. It's an unhealed wound, a sign of betrayal that hasn't quite scabbed over.

But just wait. Soon enough you'll see the "I wanna be pretty" panderer back on the political stage.  

Answer 15

His mistress won't let him go has to watch their kid
