    WASHINGTON – At a special press conference today, media heroes Sen. John McCain and Republican leader Newt Gingrich said that former Presidential candidate John Edwards is an adulterous lowlife that has no business being in politics.

    “That he could cheat on his wife in her time of need is a true travesty and shows his low character,” said McCain. “I’m just appalled.”

    Gingrich, the ex-Speaker of the House, agreed.

    “Edwards is obviously a man of low moral character,” said Gingrich. “Cheating on his wife while she has cancer? That’s something a Catholic like myself cannot stand. He must be banished from the American political scene, and now.”

    The press conference quickly ended, as the attending media were unwilling to come up with any pertinent follow-up questions to the announcement.
