Will a supposed affair between John Edwards and Rielle Hunter be confirmed?

Background: http://www.philly.com/dailynews/features/20080725_Tattle___Enquirer__links_John_Edwards__Rielle_Hunter.html

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,391426,00.html

The Enquirer started the story in 2007. Now it's back after allegedly Edwards met with Rielle on July 22nd in the Beverly Hilton hotel. Is any chance of him being VP even less than what they already was? I'm not one to bet on long term markets. This ain't getting much play..i think something about the race for president is getting all the head lines. So will Edward's be able to brush this off? Will the "mainstream" media find time to cover-investigate it? will John Edwards admit to having an affair with Rielle by the end of August? (August 31 midnight) To settle as yes Edwards or Rielle has to admit to having an affair with each other. If neither admit it by August 31st 2008, then it settles as no. There's two links above with lots of info if you wanna read it.

For some reason the words "Cold day in hell" come to mind.

Hi,

I've edited the market question because the original title had a presumption of guilt. The new market question asks the same thing but should come across less "biased."

Regards,

Get ready to throw snowballs at the Devil.
I think this thing is going to blow up soon.

@NotableNotices
Interesting link.
It seems to me that this is not the day in court that Edwards would like to have, since the reporters are filing the criminal complaint.

@chatarra - yeah, it will be interesting to see if John will have to explain to the judge what he was doing that day!
