I never thought I would be thankful for something I found on CNN anchor Anderson Cooper’s blog, but today I am.

In a Maureen Miller post five days ago on the AC360 blog, I found a decent article accompanied by a priceless video that combine to provide a flashback to 2007 when John Edwards was named “National Father of the Year in New York” in 2007.

Appearing under the headline, Edwards: “I’m not the best parent”, the article covers much of the same ground as many other print and broadcast reports have covered during the past week (i.e., He had an affair; she had a baby; and he said “It’s not my baby!”).

The video, meanwhile, combines with news reports from the past week to effectively end all future political hopes for the former North Carolina senator and presidential candidate.
