Dallas lawyer Fred Baron paid for John Edwards' mistress to relocate

Dallas lawyer Fred Baron told The Dallas Morning News today that he paid relocation and housing expenses for the woman that former presidential candidate John Edwards has confessed to having an affair with.

Mr. Baron, who was chairman of Mr. Edwards’ presidential campaign finance committee, said he paid money for Rielle Hunter to move from North Carolina to another location.


He said she and another campaign aide, Andrew Young, who claimed paternity of Ms. Hunter’s child, were being dogged by tabloid reporters who believed she had an affair with Mr. Edwards and fathered the child.

1.  Your Words, "This just keeps getting better" confuses me...

4. Not at all. Now we know they paid her. She got 114,000 to do
films and she had no previous film experience. Plus they paid her to move. Plus she lives in a 3 million dollar home with no job.

I'd call that getting better and better. Gawd.

3. Fred is the chairman of the Texas Democratic Trust.
They have funded the efforts of the Texas Democratic Party fro the past couple of years. You think there's not much in the way of Texas Democrats now? Without Fred Baron and his money, there would be nothing. Nothing.

Can't measure the damage done at this point. Too early to tell.
