Rielle Hunter in action

Garance Franke-Ruta has the story and blogger Robert Scoble has the photos of Rielle Hunter on John Edwards' 2006 presidential announcement tour. I'm looking at these photos and thinking, "Hey, girlfriend, for $114,000, couldn't you have afforded a tripod?"

You know, if you're working as a professional videographer, at least go to Wal-Mart and get a tripod for $69 of something. And maybe a remote microphone, too.

Remember that Edwards has said his affair with Hunter lasted only a short time in 2006 and had ended by 2007, yet these photos show their continued association in late December 2006.
