Hidden way down the article about Al Gore's sex habits we find this:

With the John Edwards sex scandal, People afforded the opportunistic Elizabeth Edwards a platform to create a martyr/poor-cancer-survivor persona for herself in stark contrast to the inconvenient truth that she knew all along what her husband was doing, tacitly approved of it, and allowed him to run for president again in 2008 anyway. As we’ve said before, it’s sad this woman had cancer, but she had a large hand in giving the White House to Obama because she helped her husband knock Hillary Clinton to third place in Iowa, allowing Obama’s rise. The Edwards candidacy was the spoiler in the 2008 race, and it would not have happened if not for Elizabeth Edward’s complicity. // But, People ran several covers that we can remember featuring the Saint Elizabeth meme in the aftermath of The National Enquirer’s excellent journalistic breaking of the Edwards affair scandal.

It just seems wrong that the National Enquirer is the last bastion of investigative journalism and reporting of truth in news media, but better get used to it.

As for ways Obama became the president, it's water down the bridge now.
