John Edwards saga continues, mistress talking to the grand jury

Yes, sigh of relief at dodging a bullet with Edwards.

The former mistress of John Edwards has arrived at a federal courthouse in Raleigh where a grand jury is meeting - an appearance that comes as federal investigators examine the two-time presidential candidate's finances.

Rielle Hunter walked into the building Thursday morning. Edwards said last year that he and Hunter had an affair in 2006 while he plotted his second bid for the White House. The former North Carolina senator's political action committee paid Hunter's video production firm $100,000 for work that year.

Edwards has acknowledged a federal investigation into how he handled campaign funds. Grand jury proceedings are secret, and the U.S. attorney's office in Raleigh has declined to confirm or deny an investigation.

ALSO: AP notes in a later write-thru that she entered the building carrying a young child.

When will Edwards fess up that he is that baby's daddy? Pathetic.
