WASHINGTON -- Former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards is admitting to an extramarital affair but denies fathering the woman's daughter.

Edwards tells ABC News that he lied repeatedly about the affair with a 42-year-old woman but says that he didn't love her. He says he has not taken a paternity test but knows he isn't the father because of the timing of the affair and the birth.

ABC says a former Edwards campaign staffer claims he is the father, not Edwards.

Edwards was a top contender for the Democratic nomination for president. He placed second in the Iowa caucuses last January but dropped out of the race a few weeks later.

Edwards, a former senator from North Carolina, was the Democratic nominee for vice president in 2004.

It's called, "I'll give you money and you will shut up, bitch."

I don't think so. She could publish a book and talk about what a lover he was and how he told her that he thought his wife was homey and would die soon and he would take this woman with him. Blah, bllah.

ROFLMAO - She'd get a big advance for that too. Sad.
