Kerry 'shocked' and 'disappointed' with Edwards By Eric Zimmermann - 02/11/10 02:41 PM ET John Kerry says he is "shocked" and "disappointed" with the sex scandal that has brought down his 2004 runnings mate's marriage and political career.
Kerry discussed the John Edwards saga during an appearance with his wife on Larry King last night.
"What do you make of it?" King asked.
"Well, Larry, what can you make? I mean, honestly, it is a tragedy," Kerry said.
More from their conversation:
KING: Are you shocked?
J. KERRY: Yes, and obviously disappointed. But I think -- you know, I think everybody just feels awful about it, in terms of their family, the relationship that everybody saw publically, the promise, the hope. You know, obviously, a capable career. And --
KING: Have you spoke to him?
J. KERRY: I have not. I mean, I called their home. I didn't know who would answer. I certainly was ready and willing and hope to say a word.
