Edwards trial goes to jury today

Any predictions? I think guilty of misappropriation of donations, 5 years.

Sure, the donors may have known it was for the slut and not the campaign per se, but wouldn't have given it were he not running for president, right? That makes it a campaign donation in my view. Besides, even if you don't consider it a campaign donation, it is unreported income that went through his hands and he hasn't paid taxes on.

Damn I hope that SOB does serious jail time...

But I agree with you, he'll get 5 years (or less) at a low-security (luxury) "prison" (with cell phone access, cable tv with HBO), and be out in 12-18 months.

he will get 7 years in the pokey
