Doris Haddock, also known as Granny D, died on Tuesday night, March 9, at her son’s home in Dublin, New Hampshire. The wise political activist had been suffering from chronic respiratory illness, and she had recently celebrated her milestone, 100th birthday, on January 24.

Granny D became famously known for her political interest when she hiked 3,200 miles across the United States to raise awareness of monetary function in political campaigns. Haddock made the trek from Los Angeles, California all the way to the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. during her political exhibition.

In July 2000, during her avocation, Granny D said, “There are so many problems in this country that need to be solved, but they need money in order to solve them. And when campaign finance reform has been enacted, that will release a great deal of money.” Did you hear that Rielle Hunter John Edwards?

Haddock actively supported Senators John McCain and Russ Feingold for authoring campaign finance legislation passed back in 2002. McCain made a statement after hearing the news of Granny D’s death saying, “I was saddened to learn of the passing of Granny D. Her inspirational efforts and hard work will never be forgotten.” Sen. Feingold added, “Her walk across America in support of campaign finance reform and returning democracy to the people inspired people of all ages and all backgrounds.”

Family spokeswoman and a dear friend of Haddock’s said, “She was active until two days before her death. She lived a very full life. Even though everyone is sad, we’re also full of joy over what she was able to accomplish.” Doris Haddock not only fulfilled political accomplishments, but she is survived by her son, 8 grandkids, and 16 great-grandkids. A century of life, wisdom, and family is an amazing accomplishment for anyone.

We’d have a lot more to talk about than the first lady’s flabulous arms.

It couldn’t be worse and still we’d have more to talk about than anything our current President can give us. The ever-so-suspicious, former presidential candidate, John Edwards, has admitted to fathering the “love” child with his former campaign videographer, Rielle Hunter.

Andrew Young, a former confidante to John Edwards, has written a disclosing book expected to hit shelves this week. The former Senator from North Carolina confessed his paternity of Hunter’s child to Elizabeth this past summer. It is unknown when the Edwards officially split, however a close source revealed it happened a while ago. On separating, Mr. Edwards has called it “an extraordinarily sad moment, but I love my children more than anything and still care deeply about Elizabeth.” When he says he loves his children, does that include the illegitimate child he has denied fatherhood its whole life? Bottom line, he loves his children, but after 32 years of marriage he does not love Elizabeth. Mr. Edwards has four children with Elizabeth, and his love child with Hunter makes a whole handful.

Edwards has denied his paternity of the child for more than a year saying his affair with Hunter had ended before she became pregnant. Good story… tell it walking John. His future ex-wife has been prepared for a divorce for the better part of a year. However, Elizabeth is still undergoing treatment for breast cancer, therefore she has yet to file the divorce. A close source says her decision to file likely depends of her condition.

More updates to come from this husband/father of the year… stay tuned
