former presidential candidate, john edwards. boil it all down, edwards won. prosecutors alleged he knowingly and willingly accepted $1 million from two wealthy donors to hide his mistress, rielle hunter. the jury deadlocked on the other five counts, including conspiracy, illegal con trib g contributions and making false statements. outside the courthouse, edwards, who had said virtually nothing except good morning during this trial spoke publicly. all i can say is thank goodness we live in the couldn t interest i that has the kind of system that we have. i think those jurors were exemplar for what jurors were supposed to do. they were very, very impressive. the second thing i want to say just a word about is responsibility. this is about me. i want to make sure that everyone hears from me and from my voice that while i do not believe i did anything illegal or ever thought i was doing anything illegal, i did an awful, awful lot that was wrong. there is no one else resp ....

That fred baron was taking care of covering up the affair the whole time. she also said that he had no idea that bunny mellon s money was involved. he looked tearful when she talked about the pain he conveyed to her for lying about being the father of quinn, the child with his mistress, rielle hunter. breaking news within the last hour, the presiding judge saying the witness list today does not include rielle hunter. for today or period? reporter: for today. no. could rielle hunter take the stand? reporter: absolutely. i have not thought that they would be called by the government. i think if we see rielle hunter and i think we will it will be on the defensive side of the case. i think we ll see john edwards and i think we ll see rielle hunter. but it will be the edwards defense team that puts them both on the stand. if rielle hunter takes the stand, who would she take the ....

Stand for? it s hard to see how someone who has so expressed her love for john edwards could be used very effectively for the prosecution. and they needed a good day. she s such a loose cannon. it s such a mixed bag. she may have some testimony that might be favorable to the government. but it would be better for the government to let the defense call her, they can cross-examine her, control her better. from everything we ve heard, she s a little bit wild a little bit of a loose cannon. as you point out, this is somebody who certainly shares a child with john edwards, appears to have some kind of continuing relationship with john edwards. so it s not clear that she would be sympathetic to the government. i wonder about the sympathy factor. john edwards was crying when he talked about denying paternity of his child, it seems to me the sympathy is with elizabeth edwards in this trial. every time the subject comes up, ....
