Edwards Sabotaged In Song? | Who Is Rielle Hunter?

Edwards Sabotaged In Song?

Now that John Edwards has admitted to his affair with "filmmaker" Rielle Hunter, we decided to take a better look at the "Webisodes" she made about him for his failed presidential campaign.

Each one uses a theme song at its end by Boyd Tinsley of the Dave Matthews Band. The song is called "True Reflections." It would seem that Edwards and his staff never listened to the lyrics. It's as damning a choice as Hunter could have selected.

The first verse says it all:

When you look into a mirror

Do you like what's looking at you?

Now that you've seen your true reflections

What on earth are you gonna do?

That doesn't sound like a song endorsing the person it's describing. It's an indictment. It's unclear when Hunter put this music on the film.

The song goes on to say :

 thought by now you'd be the president

But after all that was yesterday

But you've had time to go out in the world now

But you chose to run away

Well, people ask you what you're doing now

You don't even know what to say
