NOVEL PROSECUTION: YES! SLAM DUNK: NO!

John Edwards sure must feel beleaguered by the millions of dollars and thousands of man hours spent indicting him on the novel criminal theory that gifts from his wealthy friends to his baby mama girlfriend were really illegal campaign contributions that may eventually land him in jail.

Edwards didn't have the luck to actually get elected President so he could start a criminal war costing billions of dollars and thousands of dead people. That conduct certainly granted prosecutorial immunity to George W. Bush for seven long years...and two years plus to the current President.
