113. i do read the foreign press
Edited on Wed Jan-30-08 07:54 PM by amborin
the manchester guardian, for starters, a respectable left wing rag

fact is: you are perpetuating a baseless conspiracy theory

the media simply saw Edwards for what he was: an also ran with little traction

he bombed out big time as Kerry's VP candidate....while Kerry was being attacked, Edwards was mute, no where to be seen...VP candidates are supposed to come out swinging, but not pretty boy, he folded

Edwards is super thin on international affairs

one-term senator,with ho hum record

worked for a hedge fund and provided an embarrassingly lame reason for doing so (wanted to learn about the economy)

profited financially from one of his 'non-profit' help the poor organizations

constructs a 7 million dollar mansion on 100 clear cut acres

spent $400 on a haircut

added two more kids to the global over population boom, all the while expressing unease over global climate change

had pitifully little experience fighting political battles (sorry, suing corps for medical lawsuit plaintiffs does not qualify for much.....every tom,dick, and harry attorney is doing that, doesn't mean they're qualified to be prez)

doesn't walk his talk (the way Kucinich did.....e.g. .lives in beat out house in low SES area of Cleveland)
