John Edwards in Deep DNA Doo-Doo

Posted Nov 5th 2008 2:00AM by TMZ Staff

He didn't get close to the White House and now things are real stinky for John Edwards.

According to the New York Daily News, a poopy diaper snatched by a National Enquirer reporter from the Beverly Hilton could be the evidence that proves Edwards is the father of his mistress Rielle Hunter's baby. "All they need is a cup he drank from," says a source, to prove he's the baby daddy, which he's steadfastly denied.

In August, Edwards' former finance chairman admitted paying Hunter $15K a month. We can only speculate what the money was for.

20. Wait, a "reporter" is desperate enough to steal a diaper? Really? And now s/he thinks getting a cup used by Edwards is all they need?

Butt out already. Hate to break it to everyone, but it's none of our damn business.

21. Sorry to burst anyone's bubble, but human waste contains no DNA. Hard to believe I know, but it's true.

I'm pretty sure a diaper that is snug on a baby, especially around the legs will contain skin cells. If they went this far to get the stupid diaper, they are going to pay extra to scrape whatever dna they can get off of it. They know this is going to be a money making story once they get the proof..

23. I knew they'd go looking in the trash for the diapers. Enquiring Minds want to know. Lol. He may as well just give it up now rather than suffe through the two or three more paranoid years of bagging or holding on to every cup he drinks out of.

24. Is there really anyone left in the world who doesn't already know that Edwards is the father of this baby? C'mon!

25. {sarcasm}Yes, because the National Enquirer has NO REASON WHATSOEVER to say that the DNA is a match whether it is or not...{/sarcasm}
