Never a good idea

The New York Daily News has the story of Elizabeth Edwards, John Edwards' wife, and her decision to 'stay for the kids': "John Edwards did not confess his adulterous affair to his cancer-stricken wife, Elizabeth, until after he officially launched his presidential campaign in December 2006, a new report in People magazine revealed. "He told the truth slowly," one source close to the couple told the magazine. Elizabeth Edwards was furious and distraught about her husband's betrayal, but she decided to keep her marriage intact, in large part because of her terminal cancer and the prospect that her children will one day be motherless, those closest to her said. In 2007, doctors diagnosed Elizabeth with incurable cancer."

Rico says it's gotta be cold and quiet around the Edwards' house these days...
