Women's Issues Lobby Gave Big To John Edwards Before Sex Scandal

Former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards made headlines during his 2008
presidential campaign for gaining the confidence - and the cash -- of women's rights advocates across the country. Now, attention focuses on his new admission of personal transgressions; Edwards fathered a child with his former mistress and campaign videographer.

The women's issues lobby, which consists of individuals and organizations committed to promoting women's rights and interests, contributed $352,000 to Edwards' campaign during the 2008 election cycle, according to a Center for Responsive Politics analysis.
