John Edwards Must Enjoy Defeat
by Big Dog on Dec 17, 2006 at 10:59 Political
John Edwards, the man Rush Limbaugh refers to as “The Breck Girl” has not let his defeat in 2004 extinguish the ember of desire he has to lead this country. Edwards was the number 2 (appropriate for an ambulance chaser) man on the Democratic ticket that lost miserably. There are some who might claim that Edwards would have done OK if he did not have the Kerry baggage tied to him but that might be a stretch.
Edwards will announce soon that he intends to run for president in 2008. Edwards will revive his “Two Americas” theme that he believes endeared him to the voters. The theme, for those unfamiliar, is that there are two Americas, on that is poor and one that is full of wealthy elitists. Edwards might make some headway if not for the fact he lives in the America of wealthy elitists.
John Edwards is a lawyer who chases ambulances and has made a fortune exploiting the judicial system in order to garner huge settlements and pad his bank accounts. His courtroom tactics have involved theatrics like invoking the spirit of a dead child, one Edwards claims spoke to him. The antics are more appropriate for a carnival but Edwards makes lots of money with the ruse.
In Edwards theme, people would all be treated equally and there would be a distribution of income and opportunity. Unfortunately, that does not square with real life and it does not square with how Edwards lives his life. John Edwards has spent some of his time on an anti-Wal Mart crusade and yet, the elitist in him saw fit to have a staffer try to circumvent the system to obtain a hard to get Christmas present for his children from, of all places, Wal Mart. Edwards lives in a nice house, wears fine clothes and his family does not live paycheck to paycheck.
He believes that he is the answer for America. I believe he will experience another stunning defeat and, maybe, he will finally understand that we rejected him as well in 2004.

Just what we need more lawyer scum politicians.
Dog, the thing that really scares me is all the dumbasses that would be all over it IF Edwards and Barack Yomama were to run together…
The Dems would have their ‘dream ticket’…
I just hope the Repubs can come up with something, ANYTHING, decent, because I personally make no bones about it, IF John McCain is the best the Repubs can do, we’re sunk and I couldn’t support McCain against anyone…
If Edwards is the answer to America, then it must have been a real crappy question.
Edwards has no chance.
