We Ignored <\/a>the Rielle Hunter Scandal and All We Got Was This Lousy Op-Ed!<\/strong> Elizabeth Edwards has a bushelful of chutzpah chastising the mainstream campaign press for its "shallow news coverage"<\/a> after the mainstream campaign press cut her and her husband** a huge break <\/strong>on one of the great shallow stories of 2008–the mysterious Edwards Campaign Love Child<\/a> (see link for claim of an Edwards aide that he is the father of the child, and various other denials).. …<\/p>\n

P.S.:<\/strong> The E.C.L.C. must have been born by now, no? Tips gratefully accepted. …<\/p>\n

P.P.S.: <\/strong>What was so exciting about Joe Biden’s health plan (which Mrs. Edwards thinks we should all have been told more about)? Couldn’t she have spared a paragraph in her double-length op-ed to explain its unique, cruelly-ignored genius? It doesn’t look so exciting<\/a> to me. She could have steered me right. … Or, like the MSM, was she worried about boring her readers to death, preferring to talk about process issues? …<\/p>\n

P.P.P.S.: <\/strong> Mrs. Edwards also complains that in 1954 the Army McCarthy hearings were televised, "but by only one network." Wasn’t one enough?<\/p>\n

***–She describes him as "a former senator from the South standing loyally beside his ill wife." When does chutzpah become heedless Gary-Hart like taunting<\/strong>? ..<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
