where does it go?

Have you ever made a charitable donation?  If you have, have you ever wondered where that money has gone?  Well, for anyone out there who made a donation to the campaign of John Edwards, he is now on trial for using your money to pay off his pregnant mistress. "Records introduced Tuesday at John Edwards' corruption trial show his campaign finance chairman paid the candidate's mistress a $9,000 monthly cash allowance, on top of other living and travel expenses."  So, the man who was planning on running for the president of the united states, who is not always the most honest person as I have stated in previous posts, is using money donated from people who thought that he would be a good president, to help pay for a luxurious lifestlye for a woman he got pregnant, who isn't even his wife.  I mean come on people, this is just ridiculous.  I'm not even going to get into the fact that he was having an affair, because this blog simply isn't about that.  However, to use money that people are giving you, to help you become the most powerful man in the world and you used it on personal matters, that's just wrong and the man deserves to go to jail.  I mean look at this!: "Money from the wealthy donors was also used for private jets, stays at luxury resorts and a $20,000-a-month California rental mansion."
