Is Edwards the biggest phony who has ever run for President? Well, that’s saying a lot but…. maybe he is. The hair… the twenty-eight thousand square foot friend of the poor house, and now – the revelation that John-o received 800 grand from Murdoch ^[1] for a book when the candidate has been making holier than thou swipes at Rupert and Fox News, refusing to appear on the channel, etc..

We need a new, more extreme version of the word hypocrite for Edwards. Hypocritonissimo?

But beneath the kidding around is a more serious point. People like Edwards are more than just fakes – they are actually dangerous. By parading around like a popinjay for the poor, he actually hurts them, making a mockery of genuine of problems. Everything is about Edwards and his glory. It’s not about anything else.
