OT, but damn— gawker is really letting John Edwards have it:

John Edwards Is Still a Deluded Narcissist

To be fair, a personality disorder is not the sort of thing that just takes care of itself overnight. Still, in an interview with the Washington Post, shamed horndog mill-worker’s-son John Edwards sounds kinda self-important, still.

The guy won’t even admit that running for president in 2008—when his wife’s cancer came back as the Enquirer reported on his affair with a crazy lady—was maybe a bad idea!

“He said that for all the trauma that came of the 2008 campaign, he is not ready to declare that it had been a mistake to run, calling that a “very complex question.” He believed, he said, that he had pushed Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton in a more progressive direction on issues including health care — Edwards was the first to propose an individual insurance mandate — and that the value of his having run will be determined partly by what Obama achieves on these fronts.

“Did it make sense to run and stay in the race? Time will tell,” he said.”

TIME TOLD, JOHN. IT WAS STUPID.

Even back when you weren’t a complete loser, you always sounded smarmy and insincere and pandery, when you talked about the poor poor people.
