Having seen his wife, I'm guessing he takes her to Wendy's more than just once/year.

Sinatra		2004-07-15 10:12:26 AM

I believe it. He must then leave after dropping her off to go to the gym. What is it with these physically fit politicians and their lardass wives who look more like their moms? What's that all about?

Jive_Turkey		2004-07-15 10:15:24 AM

You guys are harsh. Hey, his daughter is pretty smokin'

DownSouth		2004-07-15 10:17:35 AM

He's dreamy.

LarsThorwald		2004-07-15 10:26:25 AM

I don't know why poster thinks this is "weird." I take poster's wife to Wendy's once a year, too.

Careful, Jive_Turkey. Meeting a girl's mom is like looking into a crystal ball: you're looking at that girl, 20 to 30 years down the road. Of course, I guess if you don't have any long term plans for her, it doesn't matter.

stevarooni		2004-07-15 10:28:24 AM

Nothin' wrong with Wendy's if it's a "romantic tradition". *shrug*

mryoop789		2004-07-15 10:33:11 AM

I think she's hooked on these:

criscodisco		2004-07-15 10:34:30 AM

I always hear that she's such a porker, but every pic I found via GIS shows a normally proportioned middle aged lady. Anyone have pics of her being a cow? I just don't see it.

BooBoo23		2004-07-15 10:45:35 AM

I hear that they're now offering "Biggie" sized cups of ice cold STFU just for TCS.

Uncle Eazy		2004-07-15 10:52:37 AM

That's where they had their first date. So what.

I have always heard that, but I don't believe it.

pmegan		2004-07-15 12:12:08 PM

You guys who think that Elizabeth Edwards is fat are really, really sad.

johnc98		2004-07-15 12:22:49 PM

Anyone who has ever been in a committed relationship knows that the two of you have your own little things like this. Good for them.

exactly

snarf-snarf		2004-07-15 01:15:57 PM

Um...good for them?

Sounds like they try hard to keep up the sanctity of marriage by celebrating in a way that is personally meaningful to them rather than in a way meant to impress others.

As for the lady's weight -- she's had something like 3-4 kids. She looks pretty much like my mom did in her 40s.

Gig103		2004-07-15 02:30:18 PM

Cheapskate ... just kidding, it's their little thing they do, not quite romantic but it makes them happy.

RobbieFal		2004-07-15 03:30:11 PM

That's because he doesn't cut corners..

um.. yeah

Ku_No_Ichi		2004-07-15 06:04:39 PM

Do they have sex in the potty?
That would be cool.

LeroyB		2004-07-15 06:50:34 PM

I just can't imagine THIS GUY being vice president of the United States:

DinoVomit		2004-07-15 06:52:22 PM

John Edwards is wendy's new unofficial spokesman.

doodievomit		2004-07-15 06:52:49 PM

MICHAEL MOORE IS FAT!!

/obligatory

Yellow Number Five		2004-07-15 06:52:57 PM

So John's aniversery is triple bacon classic with cheese and BJ day. Good for him.

Nanookanano		2004-07-15 06:53:20 PM

Hooray for true romance!

jpjensen2001		2004-07-15 06:53:35 PM

He just takes her there looking for lawsuits.

Also, "America's Sexiest Politican" sounds like "America's Stupidest Contest."

For Mrs. Housewife, she aint fat. For someone in the public eye, she's morbid.

/still my favorite candidate on either ticket

bbcrackmonkey		2004-07-15 06:54:28 PM

If a flamewar erupts because of this I'm going to have a shiat-fit.

This is about as relevant to anything as Bush keeping Hussein's pistol.

Flipper the Dolphin		2004-07-15 06:55:09 PM

Have you been watching Kerry and Edwards on the campaign trial? These guys have done more hugging in four days than Bill and Hillary have done in 26 years."

waitaminute...		2004-07-15 06:56:33 PM

I'd hit it.

GGracie		2004-07-15 06:58:22 PM

I hope he never forgets... his wife might get a little 'frosty'.

Yeah for them :)

MorningBreath		2004-07-15 06:58:42 PM

Don't believe a word John Edwards says.

chknjetski		2004-07-15 06:59:20 PM

WEIRD? - no

NOT REALLY NEWS? - exactly

Killer Miller		2004-07-15 06:59:34 PM

It is nice, for a change, to see a lawyer actually eating at a fast food chain instead of representing some fat ass who is suing one.

milenky		2004-07-15 07:02:35 PM

He is taking her to Wendy's every year to set a precedent of her fatness, so he then can In turn sue the family of the late Dave Thomas, for all he is worth!!!

/farking hates trial lawyers.

VwlssWndr		2004-07-15 07:03:03 PM

I just can't imagine THIS GUY being vice president of the United States: (photo of TV "psychic" John Edward)

No way! He would totally rule. With his ability to talk to the dead, it would be like having 46 different guys in office!

Just think about it: that tiebreaking vote in the Senate would be made by great past (and passed) vice presidents like John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and Elbridge Gerry!

Of course, a lot of his personal appearances would include lots of dialogue like "I'm seeing an 'R' over here" and "Who owns the gold necklace?"

Flashbulb		2004-07-15 07:03:09 PM

Fella's, his wife used to be hot, too. I'mma' find a picture....

BBanzai		2004-07-15 07:03:47 PM

He'd better go to Wendy's more than once year. If he doesn't feed that damned thing on his lip, it just might fly off of his face and attack someone.

DonkeyStrung		2004-07-15 07:04:20 PM

She was Suckin' on a chili dog down at the tasty freeze...

/got nothing

anomaly		2004-07-15 07:06:58 PM

Have you seen his wife? This is not at all surprising to me...

Flashbulb		2004-07-15 07:07:35 PM

See! what did I tell you...

anomaly		2004-07-15 07:08:56 PM

You guys who think that Elizabeth Edwards is fat are really, really sad.

Ummm, what would you call it? Come on! She's a farking whale...

HairBolus		2004-07-15 07:10:49 PM

themanfire		2004-07-15 07:11:51 PM

I think what makes it appear so strange is that his wife actually looks her age, whereas he is a 51-year-old guy who could pass for 20 years younger (at least, in photographs).

X_Raraavis		2004-07-15 07:12:38 PM

Don't vote for him because he is an unqualified far lefty shyster.

Who cares where he and his wife eat.

orrinbloquy		2004-07-15 07:13:09 PM

anomaly: you're begging for the "I would not hit it" pic.

orrinbloquy		2004-07-15 07:14:45 PM

X_Beeeavis:

farking around at Halliburton isn't qualification for the job either.

Or hiding like a panties-wet schoolgirl when things get rough.

Super Bee		2004-07-15 07:14:46 PM

Maybe he's hoping she'll get hot coffee spilled on her.

anomaly		2004-07-15 07:15:15 PM

orrinbloquy

I rest my case....

rutager		2004-07-15 07:16:02 PM

Edwards is like a dick clark robot---never ages. I just don't trust the guy. Plus he is a junk science trial lawyer. All his cerbral palsey suits were pure shiat.

/yes his wife is fat.
