Oprah snags interview with Elizabeth Edwards! (expected to appear May 11?)
Oprah Snags Interview With Elizabeth Edwards
March 31, 2009 2:30 PM

On Call has learned that Oprah Winfrey interviewed Elizabeth Edwards, wife of former presidential candidate John Edwards, last week at the couple's North Carolina home. John Edwards was on hand for the event, though it's unclear if the couple sat for a joint interview.

They have not been interviewed together since the former North Carolina senator admitted last year to having an affair with filmmaker Rielle Hunter. Hunter gave birth to a daughter in February 2008; John Edwards, the 2004 Democratic vice presidential nominee, has denied that he is the father.

Elizabeth Edwards, meanwhile, has written a book -- called "Resilience" -- that was published by Random House and is scheduled to hit the stands in May. The book's subtitle: "Reflections on the burdens and gifts of facing life's adversities." Elizabeth Edwards is expected to appear May 11 on "Oprah".

2. You all know this will be this thursday, May 7th, right?
How could you miss it, right?

God, I am sick of all the know-it-alls here at DU calling us Edwards supporters "suckers" and worse.

They are really twisting the knife.

3. Me too -
I hear ya - there are a few that are taking all of this rather gleefully. Here's a great rebuttal:

http://bennycat.blogspot.com/2009/05/john-edwards-and-harper-valley-pta.html

Now, I am not excusing John for his behavior. I would agree he shouldn't have risked his marriage, his family, and aspirations to be the greatest president of this decade over a gold digger who apparently refuses to get a job, and as Elizabeth is describing "a parasite" whose "life is pathetic". I tend to agree. I'm sorry Elizabeth felt the need to express her anger in her book (for her, it probably is therapeutic for an infidelity victim), but I won't join in with the other sharks in saying she was wrong or complicit with her husband in joining him on the campaign trail to help fulfill his political ambitions.

John and Elizabeth's causes were still mine: to lift up the poor, to strengthen the middle class, to obtain universal health care so that businesses wouldn't have to choose providing health care only for themselves, but be a part of a pool with options for cheaper gov't plans as competition.

6. They are fixing it now -
OET and another site went a little funky earlier today. It's a server thing.
