Elizabeth Edwards has no interest in jumping off her husband's gravy train, especially not while she's in the middle of cancer treatment. Hence her tortured attempts at defending her philandering hubby, including the inane assertion that John has been "courageous" in the way he's fessed up to his affair with skank Rielle Hunter. I'm sure she means that too.
The whole situation is ugly and unfortunate and would be wonderfully entertaining if only Elizabeth didn't have cancer. That takes the shine off it as gossip. Otherwise it's a lovely Gary Hart/Bill Clinton sort of thing.
Notice that, when a male Democrat gets caught in a sex scandal, it's with a woman, but when a male Republican gets caught in a sex scandal it's with a man or a boy. I don't know what that says about Democrats vs. Republicans from a psychological standpoint except that closeted fags tend to gravitate to the GOP. It's all self-righteousness as a cover for what is perceived as immoral behavior. It's too bad people can't just fuck around as they please...it's just biology folks.
