John Edwards is one sorry dude:
John Edwards is burning up the phone lines begging former aides and backers to forgive him for lying about his affair – but hearing their rage instead.

When Edwards reached one longtime confidant asking for advice, he was cut off with a terse: “I don’t want you to call me again.”The conversation ended abruptly.
There goes another brilliant career. And that woman, Ms. Druck, didn’t even save a dress.
