From the Washington Post<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Photographs distributed by wire services and posted online by technology blogger Robert Scoble show that former North Carolina senator John Edwards took his mistress Rielle Hunter with him on the plane during his late 2006 presidential campaign announcement tour. As can be seen in this Dec. 28, 2006 photo<\/a> (that’s Hunter in the jeans and jester hat, as can be seen more clearly in this side-profile photo<\/a>), Hunter stood off to the side of the national press corps filming Edwards as the former Democratic vice presidential nominee announced his second bid for the presidency in New Orleans.<\/p>\n

Here she is drinking from a cup<\/a> as Edwards is interviewed by the press. More photos of her at Edwards’s presidential campaign kickoff can be found here<\/a> and here<\/a>, where she’s shown laughing with Edwards’s young staffers.<\/p>\n

Writes Scoble on his Flickr site under a photo of Hunter<\/a> he uploaded Dec. 30, 2006, "I was hanging out with John Edwards and crew as he announced he was running for President of the United States. This photo was taken in New Orleans as Edwards gave press interviews on the lawn of a house that was destroyed in Hurricane Katrina."<\/p>\n

Scoble blogged Friday<\/a> about the four-day presidential announcement trip, after Edwards admitted the romance with Hunter.<\/p>\n

The wire service photos, below, show Hunter, whom Edwards met in a New York bar<\/a> in 2006, traveling with Edwards on December 27 and riding with him on his plane to Reno, Nev., on December 29 of that year.<\/p>\n
